China allegedly stops German campus book event


 

Alarm bells in Germany as book talks at two university campuses were cancelled – allegedly due to pressure from China. The online events were to mark the publication of a new biography: "Xi Jinping, the Most Powerful Man in the World," co-authored by two German journalists. But the publisher told local media that the talks were abruptly called off after Chinese interference, including from the consulate in Düsseldorf.

Australian universities have also fallen  victim to pressure from the Chinese government to cancel events and prohibit student organizations from protesting against the abuses of the Chinese government.
