The United States (US) attorney general, William Barr, has criticised Disney for “bowing” to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Citing an apology issued by Disney after it made the 1997 film Kundun about the life of His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Barr warned that, “if Disney and other American corporations continue to bow to Beijing, they risk undermining… their own future competitiveness and prosperity”.
