The British Foreign Office summoned Chinese Ambassador to London Zheng Zeguang on Tuesday to protest the government over the arrest and assault of a BBC journalist while covering protests in Shanghai, official sources said. United Kingdom.
Cameraman Edward Lawrence was arrested, handcuffed, beaten and kicked by Shanghai security forces during a protest against restrictions imposed by China to curb the spread of COVID-19, according to the channel.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs called Chinese Ambassador the day after British Conservative Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, in his speech at the annual dinner at the headquarters of the City of London (financial center), confirmed that the “golden era” of Anglo-Chinese relations was over.
In his speech to businessmen and foreign policy experts, Sunak noted that close economic ties with China of the previous decade was “naive”, although he acknowledged that the importance of China at the global level cannot be ignored.
Sunak criticized the Chinese authorities for “deciding to take harsh measures, including attacking a BBC journalist”.
“We recognize that China challenges our values and interests, a challenge that becomes more acute as we move towards even greater authoritarianism,” the head of government said.
Deteriorating relations with China
The “golden era” is associated with economic ties with China, which marked the government of conservative David Cameron (2010-2016), but in recent years these ties have deteriorated.
However, Sunak said the UK is aware of China’s importance to global economic stability and the challenges posed by the climate emergency.
Thus, the prime minister stressed that his country will work with allies, including the US, Canada, Australia and Japan, to “manage this competition”, even through “diplomacy and compromise.”
After the journalist’s arrest, the BBC expressed concern about Lawrence’s treatment in Shanghai and specified that he was held for several hours before being released.
“During his arrest, he was beaten and kicked by police officers. This happened while he was working as an accredited journalist. It is very disturbing that one of our journalists was attacked in the line of duty,” the BBC added. . EFE
