China warns it will take Americans hostage if DOJ doesn’t drop charges

• jollofricepeas 6y ago
  I have two friends that formerly worked in US local politics but now work in tech that have been detained for some time in China (Hong Kong). They have been accused of being foreign agents just because they worked as organizers signing people up to vote previously. This really needs to stop. Regular people are getting hurt.

    What other outcome would be expected for foreigners meddling in affairs of other nations? As an outsider, China seems to be a nation of ripoffs and corruption. I am an outsider though and wouldn't be saying that if I was a guest visiting there.

      >What other outcome would be expected for foreigners meddling in affairs of other nations? In most countries for helping people vote, no action at all really.

        Just because other countries are wildly negligent is no reason for china to follow suit.

  >US officials expected China to make good on the threat — but it didn’t, and the FBI arrested Tang in July They can keep warning all they like.
