UK clears plan for China’s biggest embassy in Europe

Britain has approved China’s plan to build its largest embassy in Europe on the Royal Mint Court site near the Tower of London, ending a three year planning deadlock. The decision comes despite warnings from some British and U.S. politicians that the complex could boost Chinese espionage activities in the UK.​ The government took over the planning process after the local council rejected Beijing’s application in 2022, and an inquiry was held last year to review the project.

Venezuela, Russia, China and political voices in the United Kingdom have called on the United States to release Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, after their capture in a US military operation over the weekend. At an emergency UN Security Council session in New York requested by Caracas, the Venezuelan government and its allies denounced the raid as a violation of the UN Charter and a dangerous precedent for the international order.​ Russia told the Council that the US action signalled a return to an era of lawlessness and domination by force, accusing Washington of acting as a self appointed global judge for political and economic gain. China said no country could claim to be the world’s police or international judge and warned that using military force as a solution would only deepen crises and erode the […]
