  • Story Text: Chinese President Xi Jinping, Premier Li Keqiang and former President Jiang Zemin paid their final respects to former Premier Li Peng on Monday (July 29) before his cremation.
    Li, who was 90, died on Monday night in Beijing, Xinhua said, more than three decades after his government authorized a bloody suppression of student-led pro-democracy protests in the early hours of June 4, 1989.
    Xinhua said Li died following unsuccessful treatment for an illness, which it did not specify.
    His death comes as China grapples with a widening political crisis in Hong Kong, where violent protests in the Chinese-controlled territory over an extradition bill have presented Beijing with the most serious popular challenge to its governance since the Tiananmen demonstrations.
