I know I sound dumb but this is a real question. I know some other people from my country (Canada) were supposedly arrested in China without cause and I’ve always thought I would avoid visiting because the government is too dangerous. Was that really all propaganda I fell for or is there truth to it?
the two michaels, who i assume you're thinking of, were 1. credibly charged with espionage (they both had ties, whether personal or financial, to NATO government officials) and 2. were arrested in clear retaliation / hostage-taking for the canadian arrest of huawei cfo meng wanzhou.
as long as you don't either a) spy on the chinese government or at least b) have a job where you could be credibly accused of spying on the chinese goverment for political purposes (one michael worked for a NATO-funded think tank, the other operated a north korean tour agency) and are not also c) in the country at the time of of an international extradition incident involving your home country you are only as likely to be arbitrarily arrested in china as you are in any other country
tldr: you're fine you as a tourist are in no more danger from the chinese government than you are from any other government

Chinese warplanes 'harass' Canadian patrol aircraft that apply UN sanctions
Fernando Valduga By Fernando Valduga 06/03/2022 - 07:44 in Military, War Zones
The Canadian Armed Forces claimed that Chinese warplanes harassed their aircraft in charge of patrolling international airspace as part of a United Nations Security Council (UNSC) mission to enforce sanctions imposed against North Korea.
Canada made these accusations on Wednesday, saying that on several occasions between April 26 and May 26, Chinese military planes boarded CP-140 Aurora long-range patrol aircraft in an attempt to divert them from their flight route.
"These interactions are not professional and/or endanger the safety of our Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) personnel," he said in a statement. “In some cases, the RCAF crew felt sufficiently at risk to quickly modify their own flight path to increase separation and avoid a possible collision with the interceptor aircraft.”
These jets are often flying at a distance of 6 to 30 meters from the Canadian plane, anonymous sources tell the Chinese newspaper Global Times - so close that Canadian pilots can make eye contact with Chinese pilots and sometimes see them raising their middle finger. The sources spoke on condition of anonymity for discussing confidential information.
"These interactions are well documented by our crew for professional internal analysis," said the RCAF.
Senior Canadian government officials are increasingly concerned about a dangerous escalation of aggression by Chinese fighter pilots in the skies of the Asia-Pacific region.
Tumblr media
The CP-140 were sent to Kadena, Japan, on April 26, as part of Operation NEON, Ottawa's contribution to the multinational effort to impose sanctions imposed between 2006 and 2017 on North Korea for its repeated nuclear weapons tests and ballistic missile launches.
Operation NEON sees military ships, aircraft and personnel deployed to carry out surveillance operations to identify activities suspected of evasion of maritime sanctions, in particular transfers from ship to ship of fuel and other goods prohibited by the UNSC.
The Canadian government sent several diplomatic reprimands to Beijing about the incidents, according to sources, calling the conduct of Chinese pilots "unsafe and unprofessional". It is believed that China did not respond to these reprimands, which did not prevent the incidents from continuing.
Relations between Canada and China deteriorated after Ottawa arrested Meng Wanzhou, Huawei's CFO, in December 2018, at the request of Washington. Shortly after, Beijing arrested Canadian citizens Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor. They were released after Ottawa released Meng, who made a deal with U.S. prosecutors to postpone the accusations of fraud against her.
On May 20, Canada banned Huawei and ZTX from their 5G networks.

Braindead Uncle Sam: ‘Really Silly Actions’: US Efforts to Isolate China’s Tech Sector Will Backfire, Expert Says
Tumblr media
The US has pushed its own businesses and those of its allies to “decouple” from China as part of Washington’s effort to pursue “great power competition” with Beijing and Moscow. However, with the global economy more integrated than ever, cutting the world’s second-largest economy out from the rest is essentially impossible.
The US has expanded its efforts to isolate China’s tech sector from advanced technology used by Western firms, especially high-end semiconductors and the microchips they’re used to make. Taiwan and South Korea have faced extensive pressure to limit sales to China, but more recently Washington has pressured Tokyo and Amsterdam, too. Meanwhile, Chinese tech firms have been rushing to adapt.
Thomas W. Pauken II, Author of "US vs China: From Trade War to Reciprocal Deal," a Consultant on Asia-Pacific Affairs and a Geopolitical Commentator, Told Sputnik That “People Become Most Innovative In a Crisis or They Have No Choice But To Be Innovative.”
“In this scenario, if Huawei cannot receive supplies from US companies, and let's say, for example, the Europeans also play ball and don't export to Huawei or other Chinese companies, this will simply require Chinese companies to become more innovative in their own market,” Pauken observed.
The author noted that China is “well-positioned” to innovate as the US pressures other nations to “decouple” from China’s economy.
Tumblr media
US Judge Dismisses Indictment Against Huawei CFO Meng! A United States District Judge dismissed an indictment against Meng Wanzhou, the chief financial officer of Huawei Technologies Co, putting an end to a criminal sanctions case that has been straining US-China relations.
“Of course, in the short term it will have an impact. Every type of punishment does. But in the long run, it actually hurts the US tech companies and the US economy much harder,” Pauken observed.
Indeed, the White House’s most recent efforts have already produced innovative fruits in Shenzhen.
Insider reports quoted in US media have said that Dutch and Japanese officials have agreed after talks with their US counterparts to abide by the US’ ban on selling the most advanced semiconductor chips to Chinese companies, including Huawei, which the US moved toward a total ban on doing business with late last year. The agreement will block Chinese companies from buying from the Dutch firm ASML, presently the world’s only producer of high-end microchips using extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography. However, last month, reports in Chinese media indicated Huawei had filed for a patent on EUV lithography, evidently an innovation the Shenzhen-based tech giant had been working on for years.
Tumblr media
‘Penny-Wise, Pound-Foolish’: US ‘Embargo’ Driving China to Pioneer Own Semiconductor Industry! US Export Restrictions May Force China to ‘Indigenize’ Microchip Value Chain - Expert “They can make life difficult for three or four years,” a venture investor in China said anonymously in US media. “But it’s penny-wise and pound-foolish. They will lose the market in China.” Huawei, a leading global techmaker headquartered in Shenzhen, has been cultivating its own efforts to find new sources for the advanced microchips that helped it become the world’s largest maker of smartphones, but also made it one of the first targets of US sanctions. Late last year, the company filed a patent application for extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography, which is used to make the world’s most advanced computer chips, according to Chinese media reports. It had previously purchased the chips from the Dutch firm ASML, the world’s sole supplier of EUV chips.
The US’ effort extends beyond Huawei, however, to China’s efforts in the fields of AI, quantum, cyber, 5G, and advanced semiconductors - all fields in which Chinese companies have been making great gains and even taken the lead over their American counterparts in some cases.
Chris Devonshire-Ellis, Chairman of Dezan Shira & Associates who has a 30-year-old investment and business career in China, Russia and Asia, told Sputnik that the US and China have different capabilities.
“There are differences between the two countries' capabilities: China has more total patents across the full spectrum of quantum technology, but US companies have a lead in quantum computing. It is a technical, digital race.”
Devonshire-Ellis predicted that the consequences of this race would be to divide the world, with ��the loser not wanting to be subject to the whims of the winner.”
Could China retaliate for the US sanctions and trade bans? Pauken said they don’t need to, they just need to anticipate such moves and believe they will be followed through, because “the US and Europe will end up punishing themselves more so than the Chinese.”
“There really isn't a reason for the Chinese to even hit back, because this is a case of the US and Europe hurting itself, shooting itself in the foot, as the saying goes, ‘cutting off the nose to spite the face,’” he said. “These are really silly actions.”
Devonshire-Ellis noted that even if China did not retaliate in kind, the US’ efforts have “completely disregarded” the World Trade Organization’s (WTO) rules regarding “fair competition.”
“There is a growing feeling in the emerging world that global institutions are being shown to have a US bias or [are fit] to be cast aside as irrelevant as the US does what it wishes. That has and is leading to a distrust of the US and of institutions that are shown to be overly influenced by Washington. This includes the World Bank, NATO, and the WTO among many others. These institutions are now being challenged and alternatives are emerging – without the presence of the US, and in many cases as well, the European Union. Both Washington and Brussels are being diminished beyond their immediate comfort zones because of this.”
That said, Pauken noted that if the US-Dutch-Japan ban does go into full effect, it would “have a huge impact.”
“Some of the countries are very upset about this and they're looking for some type of compromise or to get their names off the restrictions list from their countries. I mean they could have a verbal agreement, but it doesn't mean it's an agreement written on paper. The agreement on paper will probably look different than what apparently the newspapers are saying,” he told Sputnik.
The analyst noted that the Japanese have not totally agreed to the US’ terms because of Japan’s close trade relationship with China, especially their tech sectors, which “are making quite a bit of money.”
Tumblr media
“To actually follow through on such restrictions would create tremendous harm to Japanese companies. And this was a major issue of concern also with many South Korean companies as well. They have factories, they have a lot of semiconductor plants like South Korea does here in Shiyan and, and some other places in China. Basically, they're being told that they have to stop and shut down these foundries. And OK, who's going to pay them to shut down those foundries? Is it going to be the US?”
He noted the same is likely true of an agreement with Amsterdam.
“If the Netherlands actually agree to this on paper, then that would be devastating to their economy. Recently, they changed environmental rules, so they practically destroyed their agriculture because of new environmental rules. So right now, their only real sector is either tourism or the chips industry. So obviously, if they lose a major customer from China, this will have a very deep impact on them. I really don't believe that they have a paper agreement claiming that they actually agreed to what the newspapers are saying. And this is why a lot of times these treaties and agreements are never disclosed to the public,” he observed.
Pauken accused the US of “trying to create a crisis” by pushing policies on other countries that don’t “make sense business-wise.”
“I just don't see it happening with these countries actually going in ahead, signing some, the US and their country, agreement specifying exactly what they're claiming to the media. And this is very common. This is a very common occurrence. I always find it interesting that the media never ask specifically, ‘can you show us the agreement papers? Can you show us what is exactly in writing?’ The Western media doesn't do it that often. I would advise them that they should start spending more time looking at the actual documents.”
Devonshire-Ellis noted that the Dutch response follows the EU’s perspective, which is to closely follow what the US says. While Japan has had some more independence from Washington, especially economically, its superiority to China in the field of robotics is undoubtedly connected to its close relationship with the US.
“But how long that lasts, is open to debate,” he said.
“Overall, it should be mentioned that many of the component parts that go into semiconductors, including precious metals, rare earths and gasses, and the technologies required, are already in possession of Russia and China and its allies. This is also the case with energy reserves. The West, in time, will need access to these in order to continue a drive towards supremacy. The crunch time isn’t now – it’s when the West finds it needs to rely on Russia and China and their allies to continue to manufacture the super semi-conductors they are technically capable of designing.”
“Short-term, the US decision makes sense for Washington. But longer term it could prove to be highly damaging should Russia and China invoke reciprocity and refuse to supply the West with the core ingredients.”

ہواوے نے امریکی الزامات مسترد کر دیے
چینی ٹیلی کام کمپنی ہواوے نے امریکی حکام کی جانب سے عائد کیے گئے مجرمانہ نوعیت کے الزامات مسترد کر دیے ہیں اور کہا ہے کہ یہ الزامات ’مایوسن کن‘ ہیں۔ ہواوے نے کمپنی کی چیف فنانشل افسر منگ وانزو پر عائد کیے گئے الزامات کو بھی رد کیا ہے۔ منگ کو گذشتہ ماہ کینیڈا میں امریکی حکام کی درخواست پر گرفتار کیا گیا تھا۔ دنیا میں ’سمارٹ فون‘ بنانے والی دوسری سب سے بڑی کمپنی کے خلاف امریکہ میں جو الزامات عائد کیے گئے ہیں ان میں بینک فراڈ، انصاف کی راہ میں رکاوٹ ڈالنے اور ٹیکنالوجی کی چوری بھی شامل ہیں۔ یہ مقدمے چین اور امریکہ کے تعلقات میں مزید تناؤ کا سبب بھی بن سکتے ہیں۔
ہواوے نے الزامات مسترد کرتے ہوئے ایک بیان میں کہا ہے کہ ادارے کو ’کمپنی کے خلاف الزامات سن کر ماہوسی ہوئی‘۔ بیان میں یہ بھی کہا گیا ہے کہ تجارتی راز چرانے سے متعلق الزامات ایک دیوانی مقدمے سے متعلق ہیں جس میں جیوری نے نہ ہی ہرجانہ ادا کرنے کا حکم دیا اور نہ ہی اسے اس معاملے میں بدنیتی کا کوئی عنصر نظر آیا‘۔ بیان میں یہ بھی کہا گیا کہ کمپنی کو منگ کی طرف سے کی گئی کسی قسم کی خلاف ورزی کے بارے میں کچھ معلوم نہیں۔ امریکہ کے وزیرِ تجارت ولبر راس کا کہنا ہے کہ ’برسوں سے چینی کمپنیاں ہمارے برآمدی قوانین توڑ رہی ہیں اور عائد شدہ پابندیوں کی خلاف ورزی کر رہی ہیں اور بیشتر اوقات ہمارا مالیاتی نظام غیر قانونی سر گرمیوں میں انھیں سہولت دیتا رہا ہے۔ یہ اب نہیں ہو گا‘۔
الزامات کیا ہیں؟ ہواوے پہ الزام ہے کہ ایران کے ساتھ کاروبار کرنے کے لیے کمپنی نے اپنی دو ذیلی کمپنیوں ’ہواوے ڈیوائس یو ایس اے‘ اور ’سکائی کوم‘ کمپنیوں سے اپنے تعلق کے بارے میں امریکہ اور ایک بین الاقوامی بینک کو اندھیرے میں رکھا۔ امریکی صدر ڈونلڈ ٹرمپ کی حکومت نے ایران پر ان پابندیوں کو دوبارہ نافذ کر دیا تھا جو 2015 کے جوہری معاہدے کے بعد ختم کر دی گئی تھیں۔ یہی نہیں بلکہ امریکہ نے حال ہی میں ایران پر مزید سخت پابندیاں بھی عائد کی ہیں جن کا نشانہ تیل کی درآمد، بینکاری اور جہاز رانی کی صنعت ہیں۔
دوسرا کیس ہواوے پر یہ ہے کہ اس نے موبائل فونوں کی پائیداری کا تجزیہ کرنے والی ٹی موبائل نامی کمپنی کی ایک ٹیکنولوجی چوری کی۔ اس کے ساتھ کمپنی پر انصاف کی راہ میں رکاوٹ ڈالنے اور رقم کی منتقلی کے فراڈ کا الزام بھی ہے۔ امریکی حکام نے مجموعی طور پر کمپنی کے خلاف 23 الزامات عائد کیے ہیں۔ ایف بی آئی کے ڈائریکٹر کرسٹوفر رئے نے کہا ’اس فرد جرم نے ہمارے ملک کے قانون اور عالمی کاوباری طور طریقوں کے بارے میں ہواوے کے انکاری رویے کو برہنہ کر کے رکھ دیا ہے‘۔ رئے نے کہا ہواوے جیسی کمپنیاں ’ہماری معیشت اور ہماری قومی سلامتی کے لیے دوہرا خطرہ ہیں‘۔
اس معاملے کا سیاق و سباق کیا ہے؟ ہواوے دنیا کی سب سے بڑی ٹیلی کمیونیکیشن کا سامان اور سہولیات مہیا کرنے والی کمپنیوں میں سے ایک ہے۔ حال ہی میں اس نے ایپل کو پیچھے چھوڑتے ہوئے سام سنگ کے بعد دنیا میں سمارٹ فون بنانے والی دوسری بڑی کمپنی کا اعزاز اپنے نام کیا ہے۔ لیکن امریکہ اور بیشتر مغربی ممالک کو یہ تشویش ہے کہ چینی حکومت ہواوے کو اپنی جاسوسی صلاحیتوں میں اضافے کے لیے بھی استعمال کر سکتی ہے جبکہ کمپنی کا یہ کہنا ہے کہ اس پر حکومت کا کوئی ’کنٹرول‘ نہیں۔ ہواوے کے بانی کی بیٹی منگ کی گرفتاری نے بھی چین کو بھڑکا دیا ہے۔ انھیں امریکہ کی درخواست پہ کینیڈا کے مغربی شہر وینکوور سے یکم دسمبر کو گرفتار کیا گیا۔
انھیں بعد میں مقامی عدالت سے ایک کروڑ کینیڈین ڈالر کے عوض ضمانت ملی لیکن ان کی چوبیس گھنٹے نگرانی کی جا رہی ہے اور ان کے ٹخنے پر برقی نگرانی کا آلہ بھی لگا دیا گیا ہے۔ یہ الزامات ایسے وقت میں سامنے آ رہے ہیں جب رواں ہفتے امریکا اور چین کے درمیان واشنگٹن میں اعلیٰ سطح کی تجارتی بات چیت ہونے والی ہے۔ البتہ الزامات کا زیادہ زور امریکی ٹیکنولوجی کی چوری پر ہے جو کہ ہمیشہ سے تجارتی مزاکرات میں مشکل مد��ا ہوتا ہے۔ امریکی صدر نے چینی مصنوعات پر 250 ارب ڈالر کا ٹیرف لگایا جس کے جواب میں چین نے بھی اپنے ٹیرف متعارف کروائے۔ دونوں ممالک میں گذشتہ مہینے میں اس بات پر اتفاق ہوا کہ 90 دن کے لیے نئے ٹیرف معطل کر دیے جائیں تاکہ مذاکرات ہو سکیں۔ امریکا کے سیکریٹری تجارت ولبر راس نے کہا ہے کہ ہواوے پر مقدمہ اور چین کے ساتھ تجارتی مذاکرات دو ’بالکل الگ‘ معاملات ہیں۔

So much for ending the tariffs and Trump’s trade war. 
How will Xi respond — arrest Americans in China as it did with 2 Canadians in retaliation?
Only Trump can do something as stupid as this! Meng Wanzhou was arrested in Canada while he was having dinner with Xi Jinping at the G20 ... discussing ... a trade deal.
The acting attorney general, Matthew G. Whitaker, flanked by the heads of several other cabinet agencies, said the United States would seek to have Ms. Meng’s extradition from Canada, where she was detained last year at the request of the United States.
The authorities introduced into court in Vancouver a presentation that Ms. Meng had given to HSBC and some of the other banks in order to convince them that Huawei had severed its ties with Skycom.
The indictment also charged Huawei with conspiracy to obstruct justice by moving employees out of the United States so they could not be called as witnesses before a grand jury in Brooklyn. The authorities said the company had destroyed evidence in order to hinder the inquiry.
Ms. Meng recently retained Reid Weingarten, a leading white-collar lawyer at Steptoe & Johnson in Washington, to represent her if Canada extradites her to the United States. Mr. Weingarten was not immediately available for comment.
The Justice Department also accused Huawei of conspiring to steal trade secrets from a competitor, T-Mobile. The charges relate to a criminal investigation that stemmed from a 2014 civil suit between the two companies.
What’s Wilbur Ross going to do about his financial ties to China?
“For years, Chinese firms have broken our export laws and undermined sanctions, often using the U.S. financial system to facilitate their illegal activities,” said Wilbur Ross, the commerce secretary.
