Xinhua, in an English-language commentary, said China understood and respected Britain’s requirement for more time to think about the deal. China will not tolerate “unwanted accusations” about its investments in Britain, a country that cannot risk driving away other Chinese investors as it looks for post-Brexit trade deals, China’s official Xinhua news agency said on Monday. Xinhua said people might think Britain was trying to erect a wall of protectionism. “For a kingdom striving to pull itself out of the Brexit aftermath, openness is the key way out,” it said.
