Day in Photos: Protest Against Chinese Embassy, Border Closure in Ecuador, and Dogs Flyball TournamentDay in Photos: Protest Against Chinese Embassy, Border Closure in Ecuador, and Dogs Flyball Tournament
Police jostle with protesters gathering at the site of the former Royal Mint in London, on Feb. 8, 2025, to demonstrate against a proposal to move China's embassy to this site, a stones-throw from The Tower of London. As Britain's new Labour government bids to reset long-fraught ties with China amid a suspected spy scandal, another issue could prove thorny: Beijing's contentious plans to open the largest embassy in the UK. China has for several years been trying to relocate its embassy, to a sprawling historic site in the shadow of the Tower of London. Henry Nicholls/AFP via Getty Images
