China and Germany broke out in the United Nations. When Germany’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Christoph Heusgen, attended the last Security Council meeting on Tuesday (22nd), he called on China to release the two Canadian citizens arrested. Geng Shuang, China’s deputy permanent representative to the United Nations, responded that the Security Council will be able to perform its duties better when Hoysgen is away next year, saying that it is “finally liberated.”
Germany ends its two-year term as a non-permanent member of the UN at the end of this month, and Heusgen, who has served as a diplomat for 40 years, will also retire thereafter. He stated at the Security Council meeting on Tuesday, “Let me call on my Chinese colleagues at the end of my term to ask Beijing to release Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor. Christmas is the proper gesture to make this gesture. opportunity”.
According to a Reuters report, in response, Geng Shuang accused Hosgen of abusing the authority of the Security Council and launching malicious attacks on other member states in an attempt to disrupt the working atmosphere.

Geng Shuang said, “I want to say from my heart: “We are finally free, Ambassador Heusgen (Good Riddance, Ambassador Heusgen)”. I hope that in 2021, when you are away, the Council will better perform its duties… .Maintain international peace and security”.
However, the Hong Kong News Network under China News Service quoted the official Geng Shuang’s original words. The wording is slightly different from that reported by Reuters, and the sentence “Good Riddance, Ambassador Heusgen” is absent. He said:
I just spoke to say goodbye to him about to leave the Security Council, somewhat out of polite and diplomatic rhetoric. Now I really want to say, goodbye, Ambassador Heusgen. I hope that the Security Council without you can better fulfill its responsibility of maintaining international peace and security in 2021.
Geng Shuang went on to reiterate China’s position, stating that “China is a country under the rule of law, and anyone who violates Chinese laws will be punished. Chinese judicial organs handle cases in accordance with the law, and the legal rights of the parties are protected.” He also called:
Ambassador Heusgen just mentioned that Cumming Kai is his friend. Christoper, if you have anything you want to say to Kang Mingkai, what information needs to be transmitted can be achieved through legitimate channels. There is no need to publicly speak out on the Security Council platform to reflect your friendship with Kang Mingkai and show you to him. Care. If you do this, you can’t actually help Kang Mingkai. It seems that it can only help you personally establish the so-called “speaking of justice” image. Is this approach irresponsible? What do you think in your heart?
In his speech, Geng Shuang also pointed out, “We had hoped to end the work of the Security Council for a year with the deliberation of this topic. We could give you a happy ending, but unfortunately this hope was broken by the speech of the Permanent Representative of Germany.” .
