canada: Meng, chief financial officer of Huawei Technologies, was arrested in Canada on December 1 at the behest of the US, which is widely believed to be politically motivated to counter China's rise in high-tech, according to Global Times China. China is utterly dissatisfied with and firmly opposes the issuance of the Authority to Proceed in Meng's case, a spokesperson for the Chinese Embassy in Canada said following the decision. Department of Justice Canada issued an Authority to Proceed Friday, formally commencing the extradition process of Meng. This is not merely a judicial case, but political persecution of a Chinese high-tech enterprise. Meng is due to appear in court again on March 6. The subsequent developments have proved this, the spokesperson said, noting that the so-called rule of law and judicial independence asserted by Canada cannot cover up mistakes made in this case.
