Demonstrators rally against Chinese Embassy in London
February 8, 2025, London, England, UK: Police arrest protesters during a demonstration outside the proposed site of the new Chinese Embassy redevelopment at Royal Mint Court in central London. At least 28 diasporic groups, including Hong Kong, Tibetan, Uyghur, and Chinese dissident organisations, take part in the protest, voicing concerns over the embassy's scale and potential role in surveillance. Protesters claim the 'super embassy' will serve as a tool for the Chinese government to extend its influence, monitor dissidents, and pressure overseas communities.
