Strasbourg – The EU Parliament calls for the immediate release of Swedish-Chinese publisher Gui Minhai.
This support was shown in a non-binding resolution that was overwhelmingly approved on Thursday, with 546 votes in favor, 3 against, and 44 abstentions. All Swedish members of the Parliament voted in support.
Gui Minhai was initially arrested in October 2015 and sentenced in 2020 to ten years in prison for “providing foreign powers with intelligence.” He previously resided in Hong Kong, where his publishing house, Mighty Current, released books that depicted the Chinese leadership unfavorably.
