London:
There has been a long-standing conflict between China and the UK over issues such as Hong Kong and discrimination against Uyghur Muslims.
In this context, the police beat, kicked and arrested a journalist of a famous news agency from England who went to collect news about the protest against the corona restrictions in Shanghai, China, caused a great stir.
In this situation, Rishi Sunak, who recently took office as the Prime Minister of England, addressed his foreign policy for the first time yesterday. When he said about England’s relationship with China, “The golden age of UK-China relations established by former Prime Minister David Cameron is over. Trade will automatically lead to social and political reform between the two countries. China has presented a challenge to our values and interests.
We cannot simply ignore China’s importance in global economic stability, climate change and other issues. But, it grows even more intense as we move towards an even greater totalitarianism. America, Canada, Australia, Japan and many other countries understand this. China is the number one threat to domestic and global security,” he said.
