Embassy protests Swedish TV show
The Chinese embassy in Sweden lodged a strong protest against a Swedish broadcasting company over a TV show that included what it said were "outrageously" insulting remarks about China and the Chinese people. It urged the company and the show to apologize immediately.
On Friday evening, "the SVT broadcast a Swedish news program that outrageously insulted China", the embassy said in a statement on Saturday. "The program leader Jesper Ronndahl made comments that amount to a gross insult to and vicious attack on China and the Chinese people."
"The SVT program and Jesper Ronndahl spread and advocate racism and xenophobia outright, and openly provoke and instigate racial hatred and confrontation targeting at China and some other ethnic groups," the statement said.
