BEIJING/SHANGHAI—Chinese authorities are questioning former Canadian diplomat Michael Kovrig, who was detained days after the arrest in Canada of Huawei executive Meng Wanzhou, on suspicion of engaging in activities that harmed China’s national security.
The state-run Beijing News said on Dec. 12 that Kovrig, who works for the International Crisis Group (ICG), had become the subject of an investigation by the Beijing State Security Bureau.
