Australia’s Minister for Home Affairs Karen Andrews and five other of the country’s MPs have signed an open letter opposing the election of a Chinese Communist Party (CCP) official to the International Criminal Police Organization (Interpol).

The letter, which is cosigned by 50 legislators from around the world—comes as the countries involved in Interpol are gathering for the 89th Interpol General Assembly from Nov. 23 to Nov.25 in Istanbul, Turkey, where they are expected to elect members for the organization’s 13 seats executive committee.
