China welcomes Huawei exec home, Trudeau hugs Canadians freed by Beijing

“You’ve shown incredible strength, resilience, and perseverance,” Trudeau said in a Twitter post with photos of him welcoming them home. “Know that Canadians across the country will continue to be here for you, just as they have been.”

Chinese state media welcomed Meng back but were silent about Kovrig and Spavor, who were released hours after Meng on Friday. Some Republican senators swiftly condemned Meng’s release and urged the White House to address the U.S. Congress on the issue.“The release of Ms. Meng raises serious questions about President Biden’s ability and willingness to confront the threat posed by Huawei and the Chinese Communist Party,” said Marco Rubio in a text message to Reuters.

Acting U.S. attorney Nicole Boeckmann said Meng had “taken responsibility for her principal role in perpetuating a scheme to defraud a global financial institution.” “The fact that Meng Wanzhou can be declared not guilty and released is a huge victory in politics and diplomacy for people in China,” said Liu Dan, who was among the crowd.

Hostage diplomacy comes to a point when hostages of two nations are negotiated and freed. This gesture maybe a last ditch for PM Justin Trudeau whose seeking a 3rd term after failing for a bid for 170 seats of majority votes.
