China Urges Britain to Correct Its Mistakes after Hong Kong Extradition Treaty Suspended

China on Tuesday urged Britain to immediately correct its mistakes after Britain announced it would suspend its extradition treaty for Chinese-ruled Hong Kong.

Foreign ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin made the remark during a daily media briefing, adding that Britain's moves violated international law and norms and China firmly opposes and reserves the right to react.

Hong Kong returned to China in 1997.
