Caroline Wilson incurs wrath of
Beijing for WeChat post described as full of ‘lecturer arrogance and ideological prejudice’
Britain’s ambassador to
China has been summoned for a dressing down by the authorities in Beijing over an “inappropriate” article she wrote defending recent international media coverage on the country, the foreign ministry said.
Caroline Wilson’s article in Chinese was posted on the official WeChat account of the
British embassy in Beijing last week, amid already tense relations between
Britain and China over issues including Hong Kong, Xinjiang and the media.
