China’s ambassador warns Belgian lawmakers as they debate resolutions on Hong Kong


China’s ambassador to Belgium has been accused of trying to hinder the country’s democratic processes, after he sent a warning letter to local lawmakers who are considering punitive action over the sweeping national security law imposed on Hong Kong.

Cao Zhongming, in a letter seen by the South China Morning Post, said that the draft resolutions “distorted and smeared the Hong Kong national security law, and interfered in China’s internal affairs”.
