UK's Sunak Confronts China's Premier Li Over Alleged Spying Incident

British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak expressed "very strong concerns" to Chinese Premier Li Qiang at the G20 summit in India regarding alleged Chinese interference in the U.K. parliament. This comes after the arrest of a purported Chinese spy working in the parliament. Sunak emphasized the need to protect parliamentary democracy and align the U.K.'s approach to China with that of its allies. The Inter-Parliamentary Alliance on China expressed shock at the infiltration of the U.K. parliament by someone allegedly acting on behalf of China. The researcher arrested had links to senior Tory MPs, including the foreign affairs committee chair.
