China's top broadcaster has taken to YouTube to roast U.S. President Donald Trump, in a sarcastic video titled "Thanks Mr. Trump, you are GREAT!" mocking the American leader over his trade policy toward Beijing.

The English-language video, uploaded on Monday night, begins with a reporter reading a mock letter to Trump that jokingly thanks him for all the things he has done for China, while also highlighting many of the country's concerns in the rivals' ongoing trade dispute.

The video, published on the official account of the state-run China Global Television Network (CGTN) sarcastically thanks Trump for helping the rest of the world to "bond" and prompting Beijing to enact economic reforms that it claims has helped it lure major foreign investors such as Tesla.
