EP to debate Chinese police presence in Hungary
The European Parliament (EP) will discuss "Chinese police activity in Europe" during its plenary session on April 10 in Brussels.
The initiative, led by the Liberal Group for a New Europe, addresses concerns about an agreement permitting Chinese police officers to patrol Hungary alongside local officers.
A 2022 report by a Spanish-based NGO revealed that China then operated more than 100 illegal police stations worldwide, including some 30 in 14 EU countries (two in Budapest).
Since then, European national authorities have sought to end the activities of these police service posts, suspected of monitoring and trying to force "dissidents" to return home.
The EP agenda also includes discussions on the rule of law in Hungary.
