Asian countries are learning to cope with Chinese bullying But at a cost；加拿大油菜籽里的「雜質」

//中國當然不會明說禁止進口油菜籽是為了報復孟晚舟案，而是以發現害蟲為由，全面禁止進口。但這並非中國首次對加國油菜籽設限，早在2009年，中國就嘗試過以害蟲為由設限，三年後解禁，2016年再度以害蟲為由，要求加拿大油菜籽里的「雜質」，從2.5％減少到1％。這是荒謬的，因為全世界沒有任何國家的油菜籽的雜質可以達到這個標準。所謂的害蟲，也經科學證實早已解決，中國太習慣以市場龐大的規模恣意對其他國家施展經濟制裁，完全不顧WTO的國際規範。加國農業廠商從與中國長年交易的經驗得知，中國政府向來將農業採購視為政治而非商業活動。//

China often sends countries that cross it to the doghouse in some form. Australia is in disgrace at the moment

中共對台灣與荷蘭的報復：台灣鳳梨、香港浸會大學 World Press Photo 展

#中國海關總署昨天以 #台灣鳳梨多次檢出 #介殼蟲為由，宣布從3月1日暫停我方鳳梨輸入。
由於中國市場占台灣鳳梨出口的9成，年產值近新台幣15億元，中方此舉對台灣農民影響甚鉅，#農委會今天表示，#防檢局從未在出口中國的鳳梨中驗出介殼蟲，合格率可說是百分之百，盼中方能消禁令，並比照國際規範的方式處理。

歐洲動態

荷蘭國會第二議院昨天通過議案，把新疆維吾爾族目前面對的狀況稱為「種族滅絕」，是繼加拿大後，第二個國會通過類似議案，也是首個歐洲國家的議會這樣做。

中國駐荷蘭大使館批評議案是蓄意污衊抹黑中國，個別議員在大選前惡意炒作涉疆問題，撈取政治資本。
