China has been critical of
BBC reports on Xinjiang, while Ofcom recently revoked CGTN licence
BBC World News has been banned from airing in China, a week after
Beijing threatened to retaliate for the recent revocation of the
British broadcasting licence for China’s state-owned CGTN.
In a statement published at midnight Beijing time on Friday, China’s National Radio and Television Administration said BBC World News’s coverage of
China had violated requirements that news reporting be true and impartial and undermined China’s national interests and ethnic solidarity.
