ambassadors are restrained, colourless figures who emerge from the wallpaper only to object ritually that any criticism of their government is an insult to Chinese people. Gui Congyou, China’s ambassador to Sweden, has taken a different tack. He and his embassy denounce journalists and public figures for perceived slights on an almost weekly basis, a pace so unusual it has been studied by Swedish political scientists.
Sweden has friendly business ties with Chinese companies: Volvo is now owned by a Chinese carmaker, and Swedes are happy with that relationship. But the two countries are at odds over human rights. In 2015 Gui Minhai , a Swedish national who was a bookseller in Hong Kong, disappeared in Thailand and reappeared months later in Chinese custody. His crime seemed to have been selling disparaging books about President Xi Jinping.
All this bluster has won no concessions. Sweden’s government plans to subject Chinese investments in Swedish companies to more scrutiny. The business press has also turned more sceptical of Chinese investment. In November the parliament passed a law that allows for a national-security review of Huawei as a potential supplier to Sweden’snetwork. That could mean favouring Ericsson, a Swedish native, over the Chinese firm.
Chinese bullying omg hahahahahhaahahahga
I don't think the Swedes are in a good way to improve their relations with foreigners, and I think less with CHINA.
Not good, not good
What a surprise ! We 'only' give to them keys of home !
This is what happens when there is a power vacuum and yo lose the respect of the world.
Is that chair from DFS ?
In their eyes, this is not rude and anti-civilization, this is the only way for the Communist Revolution. They are filled with pride. The whole party's thinking is based on the thinking before the collapse of the Soviet Union.
There is also serious victim paranoia, which is a common disease caused by the communist virus. Therefore, the communist countries have to carry out various cleansing to eliminate people with different opinions and deliberately bully other countries.
Apparently taking ambassador lessons from Richard Grenell.
Severest actions should be taken. Other countries should substantially support, esp. leading powers. Threats from it are spreading and aggravating. Letting a single country face such a giant bully, is a shameful big fault, all get crushed one by one. Get united, confront it.
Perhaps these diplomats should first deal with the ChinaVirus back home before calling the shot overseas.
Wang Yi's idea of diplomacy: act like a thug
Not only rude but bad diplomtic'to ours friends offer them good wine,to ours enemies shotgun 'enough
WE GAVE KEYS OF HOME AND NOW WE COMPLAIN,WE CRY ?
An ambassador can be that rude and still being endorsed, it's impressive
Never perceive people's kindness as their weakness
See the damage caused by the radiation of China's economic influence.
China is dangerous?
No backbone, Bow easiler, Kneel quicker.
Europe should get their act together. It's easy for China to bully individually Sweden, Denmark or Czech Republic as the markets are small and their suppliers can be replaced. If Europe act as one, communists would face wealthier block than China; with consumers and suppliers.
world This is what being friends with China cost you. EU UK
Remember Genghis Khan and his Chinese army plundered the world? In China there are China and Mongol tribes. When they are few and weak, they are nice and polite. When they are many and strong, they have shotguns
China is a super power, give her due respect. Freedom too has a limit.
... ceterum censeo sinarum esse delendam.
The dawn of having a new empire
Won't be bullying anyone whilst their nation is being riddled with a virus
