Lukáš Valášek thanked the ČT24 newsroom for the report on Yang Yi-min, whom he labeled as a Chinese propagandist. He stated that Yang is currently on trial accused of espionage for the Chinese communist government. Valášek questioned whether the government coalition would fulfill its promise to limit the crime of collaborating with a foreign power. According to him, this particular paragraph allowed the police to detain Yang. Previously, Yang had met with Jan Zahradil, a foreign policy advisor to Petr Macinka, the head of Motorists for Themselves. Valášek also wrote that according to the security community, China wants to exchange Yang for a Czech citizen detained in China. Although Petr Macinka asserted that the cases are unrelated, Valášek said that any potential exchange was decided by the court, not by politicians. https://t.co/UPgHMkzs18 #špionáž #Čína #justice (translated)
