Original title: Hua Chunying urges Canada to show independence and courage in the Meng Wanzhou incident
On August 18, a Canadian court concluded the initial trial of Meng Wanzhou’s extradition case. Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying said on the 19th that the Meng Wanzhou incident was an outright political incident. The US government concocted this incident for absolutely no legal reasons. The real purpose was to suppress Chinese high-tech enterprises and obstruct the development of China’s science and technology. Canada has acted as an accomplice of the United States and bears an inescapable responsibility.
“Ms. Meng Wanzhou also has her own elderly father, as well as her own young children. The Canadian side acted as an accomplice of the United States, ignoring the fact that Ms. Meng Wanzhou did not violate any Canadian laws and detained Ms. Meng Wanzhou unreasonably for nearly 1,000 days. The act of acting as a tiger is textbook-like intimidation and violation of human rights.” Hua Chunying said, “I don’t know when Canada talks about defending’human rights’ and’democracy’, has it considered the human rights of Ms. Meng Wanzhou? Yes. Didn’t consider the human rights of Meng Wanzhou’s young children? Did they consider the human rights of Meng Wanzhou’s family?”
Hua Chunying said that some Chinese media have issued an open letter to the Canadian ambassador to China and initiated a joint network. In less than 24 hours, more than 3.5 million people have signed up. “This is China’s public opinion! I hope Canada can hear it.” She said that China urges the Canadian government to listen carefully to these calls for justice, show the spirit and courage of independence, immediately correct mistakes, release Ms. Meng Wanzhou, and let her as soon as possible. Return to the motherland safely. (Reporter Wu Yuechengxin)
