CHINA-UK: OFFICIAL CHINESE MEDIA PRAISES THERESA MAY FOR NOT RAISING HUMAN RIGHTS ISSUES DURING VISI
The Chinese-language Global Times on February 2, 2018 in an editorial praised British Prime Minister Theresa May f or "wisely" resisting calls to publicly challenge Beijing over Hong Kong and human rights during her three-day visit. Describing western media insistence that she raise these issues as a futile exercise in “mudslinging”, the editorial said “Nothing can stop China-UK cooperation: noise and nagging will be carried away by the wind.”
