China held these two men hostage, letting them go only when the US dropped the extradition request. That’s kinda nuts.
It was illegal but not arbitrary… There was a very clear reason for the hostage exchange
It may not have been illegal. Spavor has accused Kovrig of conducting espionage by gathering intelligence from people like Spavor on behalf of the Canadian security apparatus. (Also, illegal according to which laws?)
Edit to add: but also fuck authoritarian governments like the CCP.
