AP, MUNICHThe response by the US to China detaining two Canadians in apparent retaliation for the arrest of a Chinese Huawei Technologies Co (華為) executive has not been strong enough, US Senator Lindsey Graham said on Friday. It was just grabbing two Canadians,” Graham said. Canadian Minister of Foreign Affairs Chrystia Freeland, who appeared on the panel with Graham, mouthed the words “thank you” to Graham after he said it. Some analysts have said the US response to China’s arrests of the two Canadians has been muted. Trump has not commented on the Canadians, but US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has, saying that China ought to release them.
