Declining turmoil in the Middle East granted Obama a general reprieve from having to deal with the region.
Nuclear weapons-related sanctions against Iran were lifted by the United States in exchange for a halt to its

Obama took a particularly hard line against China, reducing diplomatic contact.

Obama surely made his share of mistakes, including misreading the Arab Spring. He believed that support for the ouster of authoritarian regimes put America and his administration on the right side of history. But calling for the overthrow of dictators while doing little--in some cases, nothing--to help those who sought their downfall was a contradiction that has already had significant, long-term costs.
It's often said that China had a sino-centric view of the world and anyone who was not Chinese was automatically considered a barbarian.
But I read recently that Europeans before the 18th century usually didn't use forks, and would instead cut their food with a knife and eat it with their hands. For Chinese people who've been using chopsticks for centuries, assuming they held the notion that eating with your bare hands is barbaric, that would certainly make Europeans seem like barbarians.
So basically, did Chinese people mention any specific Europeans dress, behavior, appearance, food, language, culture, etc. as seeming "barbaric"?
