UK expresses concern over Chinese police stations and foreign national intimidation on British soil.
The UK government has warned China against intimidating foreign nationals on its soil after reports of a secret Chinese police station in London. The US recently arrested two New York residents for allegedly operating a similar station in Manhattan. Britain's policing minister, Chris Philp, said the government was aware of about 100 such stations around the world and that any interference with foreign nationals or transnational intimidation is completely unacceptable. The Chinese government has previously said there are centres outside China run by local volunteers, not Chinese police officers, that aim to help Chinese citizens renew documents and offer other services.
