At least Meng can hire lawyers etc. In China, there is no real law when it comes to anything political or economical, which are always mixed.

There is a serious problem with justice in the US though. We have in Norway seen cases of our citizens being unjustly imprisoned in the US through sham trials.

While the US has protected people doing serious crime in Norway.

I don’t defend China, but I wish the US held a much higher standard itself because it is hard for western countries to fight for justice and human rights when the US has such a poor record itself.

Any links to support this?

Isn't that an indictment of the Norway justice system? Or would it be acceptable if Norway could protect its citizens in the United States?

I would very much like to see a citation on this, because I’ve certainly never heard of it if true.
I believe they are talking about Wikileaks.
