For at least ten years, the Chinese Communist Party has been abducting its overseas citizens on EU territory and forcibly returning them to China - violating the rule of law and public security in Europe - a new report finds.

We’ve heard some reports about illegal Chinese policestations abroad before. But it seems now that it’s been going on for a very long time, and on much broader scale then previously thought.

NB: The original link gives us a 404.

    “Official Chinese figures show 12,000 repatriation cases from more than 120 countries as a result of the two main repatriation campaigns. These are often touted by Beijing as a major success. It is not clear exactly how much of this is propaganda and how much is real data. To give a sense of the scale, a few years ago China managed to persuade 230,000 people to return to China in just one year as part of a special campaign in which the threat of collective punishment was also used as a means of persuasion.”

    So basically Chinese refuges or expats resident have never been safe. Its not something recent .And apperantly the Chinese Gvement isn’t respecting the sovereignty of other countries at all. It’s a wakeupcall, our territories are “infiltrated and not safe”, and now with the upcoming collaboration between Hungary and China, it will only get worse; if we don’t change our ways soon.

      “Persuasion.” “Repatriate.” Uh huh, ok.

      What gets me is that these individual countries aren’t more concerned that a foreign actor is operating state-sanctioned activities within their borders under the radar. If the script was flipped, say a US operative conducting these activities in China, they’d “disappear” off the radar very quickly.
