Trump Says China May Release Detained Pastor But Tycoon Jimmy Lai 'Is a Tough One' US President Donald Trump's comments on Air Force One last week have raised questions about his administration's commitment to human rights and press freedom.
In contrast to the detained pastor Jin Mingri, Trump seemed less concerned with the plight of media mogul Jimmy Lai.
Pastor Jin Mingri was arrested in November along with nearly 30 others from Zion Church, a Chinese megachurch that has been at the forefront of the country's Christian movement.
