John Cena Is Apologizing To China About What He Said In A Recent Interview
John Cena is owning up to his mistake in a public apology to China.
The 44-year-old F9 star made a formal apology to the country after referring to Taiwan as its own country instead of a province, as it is considered.
During an interview with Taiwanese broadcaster TVBS, John apparently said that “Taiwan is the first country that can watch” the newest Fast & Furious movie, F9.
After the interview aired, John made his apology and spoke in Mandarin on Weibo, a Chinese social media site.
“I made a mistake,” he stated, via the New York Times. “Now I have to say one thing which is very, very, very important: I love and respect China and Chinese people.”
He added, “I’m very sorry for my mistakes. Sorry. Sorry. I’m really sorry. You have to understand that I love and respect China and Chinese people.”
There is a lot of controversy on whether Taiwan is truly its’ own country. As of right now, there are only 17 countries recognize Taiwan’s democratic government.
