李克強：消息人士稱前總理在上海游泳時突發心臟病

Li Keqiang, the former premier of China, tragically passed away due to a heart attack at the age of 68. This unfortunate event occurred in Shanghai on an early Friday morning. His death was a significant loss for China, as he was a highly respected leader. Known as 'the people's premier', Li's sudden demise sent shockwaves across the nation. Millions of people took to social media platforms to express their grief and pay tribute to him.

Prior to his retirement, Li had undergone coronary artery bypass surgery. Despite not having reached the official retirement age, he had stepped down from his position as premier earlier this year. On the day of his death, Li was visiting Shanghai. He suffered a heart attack while swimming at the Dongjiao State Guest Hotel. He was immediately rushed to the nearby Shuguang Hospital by his personal security and healthcare staff, but unfortunately, he was pronounced dead shortly after midnight.

During his tenure as premier, Li successfully steered China, the world's second-largest economy, through numerous challenges. These included a burgeoning government debt, trade tensions with the United States, and the Covid-19 pandemic. He was also lauded for his unwavering support for the Belt and Road Initiative and the poverty relief campaign, both of which were strategies initiated by President Xi Jinping. Li's efforts to balance economic growth and stability were highly commended.
