China Says Trudeau Wasting Breath Asking for Trump’s Help on Canadian Detainees

Beijing at least understand how an Empire-client relationship works if Trudeau doesn't

China’s government warned Canada not to waste its time hoping US President Donald Trump will help in the release of two foreign nationals detained by the Asian powerhouse since last December.

The US should delay a trade deal with China until the matters of the two Canadians, Michael Spavor and Michael Kovrig, are resolved, and until the extradition case of a Huawei Technologies executive being detained in Vancouver is also settled, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on Thursday.

Speaking at a press briefing, China’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Geng Shuang said the two Canadians are facing national security-related charges, while the case of Huawei CFO Meng Wanzhou  is entirely Canada’s fault.

“Here’s some advice to the Canadian side: don’t waste your time and effort on ganging up on China or pressuring China for unrelated matters, because you will gain nothing from that,” Geng said, according to a transcript of the briefing on the finance ministry’s website.

“As to the cases involving two Canadian citizens that Canada keeps bringing up, they are suspected of conducting activities that endangered China’s national security.”

In a French-language interview with Canadian broadcaster TVA on Thursday, Trudeau said the US should not sign any “final” trade agreement without first having those two matters resolved.

“We have said the US shouldn’t sign a final and complete agreement with China that doesn’t settle the question of Meng Wanzhou and the two Canadians,” Trudeau said.

Kovrig was detained last December along with Spavor, a fellow Canadian who had organised trips to North Korea, days after Huawei’s Meng – daughter of Huawei’s billionaire founder – was arrested by Canadian authorities in Vancouver in response to a US extradition request.

The pair were formally arrested on charges related to the theft of state secrets.

China has repeatedly denied a link between the detentions and Huawei.

Canada has asked the US to intervene in the matter of the two detained Canadians.

    Can means in Native ” Indian” and semitic languages of America-means SERPENT! Canada is modern Canaan,land of the snakes, subordinated to the pimping United Snakes as a local hooker! Settled by snake jews just like the United Snakes! Entire continent of Ama-ruca symbolises the Land of Plumed Serpent( Wikipedia), as the Dragon-Serpent continent,in Revel12:9 identified as satan! No suprize,the great USAtan is a synagogue full of snakes and lizzards dressing english and speaking yiddish!

      By no means is China the Dragon country,but entire Ama-ruca/America,the Dragon-Serpent continent! China has 5 dragons of 5 colors as 5 ages of the Anno Magnus great year cycle! To call China as Dragon country is masonic ca ouflage/ smoke screen, to cover up the real Satanic country and continent,the United Snakes of America!

    the worst-case szenario for a politician or any other personal or official status in China is when losing face…. such as Trudeau did….. for Canada
    in private it is the same… of course not comparable with a country’s image….. on that scale Canada is done regarding China

    Should trudeau not have thought a bit more before he detained Meng. He just thought it was a good idea at the time. A PM can’t win with that kind of thinking in any arena.

      he thought it’s a good thing to ask how high, when the empire orders to jump….
