And Meng isn’t Indian. It’s an analogy.

Meng is Chinese, the analogy works perfectly. HSBC is an entity from a third-party country.

Correct, which is why the jurisdiction and extradition make sense.

Glad we agree.

So you're saying that china would be completely within its rights to extradite, prosecute, and punish a US citizen who made fun of their leader on US soil if that citizen ever sets foot in a jurisdiction that has an extradition treaty with china?
