2019-03-11 6

Chinese telecoms giant Huawei’s Chief Finance Officer Sabrina Meng Wanzhou is suing the Canadian government. She alleges authorities detained and interrogated her before declaring her under arrest.   Last Friday, Canada decided to allow the US to extradite Meng. The move angered Beijing, which issued a statement branding it a ‘severe political incident’. Then, on Tuesday, China accused two detained Canadians of spying.
