LONDON: The UK government on Monday (Sep 11) faced calls to get tougher with China, upgrading it to a strategic threat to the country, after police arrested a parliamentary researcher on suspic
The arrest, made earlier this year but made public only this weekend, prompted Prime Minister Rishi Sunak to warn Premier Li Qiang in person about Chinese"interference" in democracy.
"The government has been clear that China represents a systemic challenge to the United Kingdom and to our values," Dowden added, saying that London was"clear-eyed" about the challenge. "The result is that China is penetrating all our institutions from universities to parliament," he said. Chinese foreign ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning, however, told a news conference in Beijing that"The so-called claim that China is conducting espionage activities against the UK is pure fabrication. China resolutely opposes this."
The accused added:"I have spent my career to date trying to educate others about the challenge and threats presented by the Chinese Communist Party.
