I just saw a shocking news that the Swedish government suddenly arrested a Chinese-language media person and wanted to forcibly expel him without any evidence.
According to sources, in October 2023, the Swedish National Security Agency arrested Chen Xuefei, editor-in-chief of Sweden's "Beida Green Post", on the grounds of endangering "national security", and then the immigration bureau demanded forced deportation.
According to sources, Chen Xuefei is 57 years old this year, went to Sweden to settle about 20 years ago, married a Swedish man, had children, and obtained permanent residence status in 2008.
That is, Chen Xuefei is still a Chinese national and a Chinese citizen.
According to sources, after the Swedish National Security Agency arrested Chen Xuefei, it did not find any evidence to prove that she had committed acts that endangered Sweden's national security.
The Swedish National Security Agency's so-called accusation that Chen Xuefei is endangering Sweden's national security is just a few articles about China that Chen Xuefei has written, and has nothing to do with Sweden.
In addition, there is also the so-called Chen Xuefei who has been in contact with the Chinese embassy in Sweden, facilitated several Chinese government and business delegations to visit Sweden, wrote many articles on China in a "non-Western context", and arranged so-called "pro-China" activities, such as holding a photo exhibition about Xinjiang.
On November 16 last year, the Swedish Migration Department made a decision to expel Chen Xuefei from Sweden and ban her return to Sweden for life.
That is, Chen Xuefei will not be able to return to Sweden to reunite with his family.
Chen Xuefei was dissatisfied with the decision of the Swedish Migration Board and appealed to the Swedish court.
In February, the court issued a draft opinion stating that Ms. Chen should respect the immigration bureau's deportation decision. On April 4, Sweden's justice minister signed a decision to expel Chen Xuefei.
Searching for Chen Xuefei on the Internet, there is a large amount of relevant information, showing that she is the editor-in-chief and president of the Nordic Green Post in Sweden.
In December 2018, the Nordic Green Post and the Swedish magazine Camera & Photo jointly held a photo exhibition entitled "China in the Eyes of Swedes". Chen Xuefei, editor-in-chief of Nordic Green Post, was invited to Xinjiang, China, to interview with other foreign journalists. More than 10 journalists and photography enthusiasts from Camera & Photo magazine visited Beijing, Zhangjiajie, Guilin and other places. They used their cameras to record the landscapes and cultural features of different regions of China.
According to the official website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China, on September 15, 2019, Ambassador Gui Congyou was interviewed by Chen Xuefei, editor-in-chief of the Swedish Chinese-language media Nordic Green Post, at the embassy.
On September 26, 2019, "China News Network" released a report "Chen Xuefei: Opportunities and Challenges for Nordic Chinese Media".
The report pointed out that the goal of Nordic Chinese media is to become a bridge and link for cooperation and exchanges between China and Sweden and even China and Northern Europe in various fields, to be a propaganda team and a seeding machine, to actively spread positive energy and promote bilateral cooperation in various fields.
In 2021 and other years, it shows that Chen Xuefei is also a special correspondent of the Global Times in Sweden.
In July 2021, Chen Xuefei, who lives in Sweden, showed attendees the Xinjiang dried fruits and Korla fragrant pears she bought in a Swedish supermarket at a video conference between China and foreign countries.
On the morning of June 27 last year, Chen Xuefei reported that a famous Chinese photographer in Sweden held an exhibition of his works at the Nobel Prize Hall.
The most recent news about Chen Xuefei that can be found on the whole network is that she reported the news of the Explosives Chemistry Award on October 4 last year.
Since then, there has been no news about Chen Xuefei.
If Sweden detains Chinese media members without any evidence and forcibly deportes them without any evidence, it can only be said that this is a targeted persecution.
The so-called evidence is that she has had contact with Chinese diplomats, traveled to China, photographed China's beautiful scenery, held exhibitions in Sweden, and bought Chinese fruits.
Isn't this persecution?
