Add InterestChina's foreign minister vowed Tuesday to protect its citizens abroad as a Canadian court decided whether to release a technology executive on bail in a case that has riled U.S.-Chinese relations. Beijing will "spare no effort" to protect against "any bullying that infringes the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese citizens," Foreign Minister Wang Yi said at a conference in Shanghai. The order was dated Nov. 30, according to Qualcomm, the day before Meng's arrest. On Monday, a Canadian prosecutor, John Gibb-Carsley, asked the court to reject Meng's bail request. Meng's arrest has added to U.S.-China trade tensions amid a fight over Beijing's technology strategy.
