Interference at varsities? All fictitious, says angry China of British report

Foreign Ministry spokesman Geng Shuang says China expects foreign nations to mind their business.

One academic told lawmakers he saw Confucius Institute officials confiscating papers which mentioned Taiwan – which Beijing considers a rebel province awaiting reunification – at an academic conference. “China has always adhered to a principle of non-interference in internal affairs,” said Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Geng Shuang at a press briefing.

In Australia, public rallies and acts of solidarity have been staged at several campuses, angering some mainland Chinese students who have physically confronted protesters and torn down message boards. In July, Australian education minister Dan Tehan said the government was looking at whether deals between 13 local universities and the Confucius Institute breached foreign interference laws.
