It is reported that British Prime Minister Sunak is trying to quietly repair the relationship between Britain and China.
Bloomberg reported that a trade minister sent a trading minister to Hong Kong a few weeks ago.
British Davidson, Consul General in Hong Kong, said in an interview with the South China Morning Post in early May that Britain hopes to restart relationships with Hong Kong and discuss through cautious and uninterrupted channels instead of MEGAPHONE DIPLOMACY.And revealed that high -level officials on both sides will visit each other.
British Foreign Minister James Cleverly is expected to visit China within a few months.
However, Sonak flew to Beijing to meet in Beijing in person like France, Germany and Spain leaders.
The insider said that Sunak is unlikely to visit Beijing before the next election in the UK, so as not to make people feel that he tries to please China through high -level access.
This reflects the dilemma facing Sunak. When he tried to lead Britain to expand the diplomatic space of Brexit, alienation Washington or Beijing was unbearable for London.
Sunak must also respond to domestic, especially his Conservative Party, increasingly increasingly trust China.
People familiar with the matter said that Sunak does not want people to feel that he is rewarding China through high -level interviews. As for whether Sunak's measures can make China feel satisfied, it is unclear.
Another person familiar with the matter revealed that Beijing also hopes that Britain will send a senior economic or trading official and a business delegation to visit China, not a foreign minister to China.
A spokesperson at the Office of the British Foreign Affairs, Federal and Development Department and the Sunak Office refused to comment on Bloomberg reports.
