China Canada Crisis: Hauwei’s CFO and the two Canadians accused of espionage
This is good news, but it also indicates how much Chinese justice is manipulated for political purposes.
China and Canada organized, with the participation of the US, what in other times would have been a prisoner exchange at Check Point Charlie in Berlin.
Huawei CFO Meng Wanzhou, who was arrested in Canada on an American arrest warrant for trafficking electronic components with Iran, violating tariffs, was released after virtually appearing in an American federal court, declaring herself guilty, and having suffered a heavy fine.
BIG DEVELOPMENT:
Meng Wanzhou is expected to appear virtually in an American federal courtroom today to plead guilty to the US charges against her, say sources.

At this point the request for extradition to the USA falls and therefore the arrest in Canada. The CFO spent this period under house arrest in a luxury Vancouver mansion.
According to RT, this decision was paralleled by the release of two Canadian entrepreneurs arrested on charges of espionage and who risked a heavy sentence. A few hours after the American pronouncement, Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor were taken on the plane that would take them back to Canada, after more than 1000 days in Chinese prisons.

In a world increasingly crossed by international tensions, finally good news and less contrast, not more, in an increasingly hot world. After all, the problem of Taiwan's reactions is still alive.
