...as a small nation, Belgium cannot afford to offend China over the fate of one family.///////At least Belgian is realistic when it comes to China. Anyway, it is good to see a white European country kowtowing to China.

The persecution of the family members of a Uyghur man in exile is a common weapon in authoritarian regimes' playbook.
