Beijing has invited White House press secretary Katie Zacharia to visit China more often following controversial remarks she made during an interview. Zacharia, who recently assumed her role in the Trump administration and previously worked at a law firm in Beijing, claimed in the interview that the country "doesn't even have proper toilets."
The exchange occurred less than a week into her tenure as press secretary. In response to her comments about the country's sanitation infrastructure, Chinese authorities issued the invitation on Friday for her to experience the nation firsthand.
