The disappearance of the Chinese foreign minister and a small Italian intermezzo in the matter
It has now been more than a month since the Chinese foreign minister Qin Gang , and the news is now in all the international media, even if it is rather ignored in our country. Yet the news is of global importance, also because it has affected US-China relations, which have not been able to evolve as expected, and the British foreign minister recently canceled his visit to China precisely due to the lack of security of being able to meet with an adequate counterpart. Currently, the minister still appears in his post, but no longer as one of China's top personalities, which is very strange.
International sources say her alleged lover, Hong Kong TV star Fu Xiaotien or Xiaoshen, who recently had a baby who is believed to be the son of 57-year-old Qin Gang, played a role in his disappearance.
What would have involved Qin Gang would not be having a lover, but the fact that there are strong suspicions that this woman is a double agent, with contacts with Western services . Specifically, Fu would be accused of having connections with the British secret services, also for her studies in Cambridge . This university even dedicated a garden to Fu in 2019, a ceremony in which the journalist took part directly, and this is already really strange.
But this is not the only oddity around Fu Xiaotian: in fact, this well-known journalist has also received an Italian decoration . In 2017 the Italian ambassador in China Ettore Sequi honored her with the Knighthood of the Order of the Star of Italy on behalf of the President of the Republic Sergio Mattarella. This honor is due to foreign citizens, or Italians residing abroad, who have acted in the interest of Italy, a kind of our little-known Legion of Honor. In the words of the Ambassador, you would have been the "North star of relations between China and Italy". A very important role therefore, even if it is not clear how it was carried out, beyond interviews with two Italian prime ministers, a foreign minister and President Mattarella.
Could it have been all these international relations that got the Chinese journalist into trouble?
