Foreign Ministry Spokesman Guo Jiakun presided over the regular press conference. A reporter asked a question. We noticed that the Chinese Embassy in the UK recently issued a safety reminder reminding Chinese citizens to pay attention to British entry/exit checks. Can we ask the spokesperson to further explain the relevant situation? Guo Jiakun said that recently, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Embassy in the UK have received many reports of Chinese citizens being detained for long periods of time by British border enforcement agents, and that electronic devices such as mobile phones they carry with them have been seized. The Chinese side expressed strong dissatisfaction and serious concern over arbitrary excessive enforcement by the British police. It has made serious representations to the British side, and will make every effort to protect the personal safety and legitimate rights and interests of Chinese citizens. “We remind Chinese citizens planning to go to the UK to read the tips issued by the British Embassy in detail to avoid inconvenience and loss.” Guo Jiakun said.
