A Chinese diplomat recently posted an anti-NATO statement about a protest that recently occurred in Brussels, causing backlash from the international community. This happened while the regime’s special envoy was visiting European countries to improve China-EU relations.

On June 20, about 70,000 Belgian workers marched through Brussels demanding their government take action against the sharply rising living costs. At the same time, one-day strikes were occurring at the Brussels Airport and on local transport networks nationwide that brought public transportation to a near-halt.
