EU: China was wrong to ban BBC
By EUobserver
The EU has said China was wrong to ban BBC news from broadcasting there and in Hong Kong, calling it an undue restriction on "freedom of expression and access to information" in a statement Saturday. China did it after the UK banned a Chinese broadcaster, CGTN, earlier in February and the BBC reported on mass-rape of Uighurs in Chinese detention. It was unclear if BBC correspondents in China could stay.
