Gui Minhai

A diplomatic scandal ended with Sweden’s ambassador to China being acquitted – in large part because prosecutors had to rely on a centuries-old law to press charges.

While the world struggles with the coronavirus, China makes moves to extend its persecution well outside its borders.

Relations between China and Sweden have taken a nosedive with threats, trade restrictions, and the indictment of an ambassador.

Foreign citizens are increasingly being used to carry out the dirty work of the Chinese regime.

Since his dramatic rearrest on a train in January, Swedish citizen Gui Minhai has been detained (again) for months.

Despite pressure from the international community, China hasn’t provided any explanation on Gui’s rearrest so far.

Months after being released, Gui, a Swedish citizen, was abruptly arrested again.

Months after his release, Gui Minhai was seized by Chinese authorities again -- right in front of Swedish diplomats.

Bookseller Gui Minhai had been kept in custody on the Chinese mainland for two years.

Detained activists have two choices: vanish or confess.

“This is about China actively extending its control beyond its borders."
