UK envoy summoned for 'didactic arrogance'

Caroline Elizabeth Wilson, the United Kingdom's ambassador to China, was summoned by a chief official with the Chinese Foreign Ministry's Department of European Affairs on Tuesday to receive a solemn protest about her recent improper signed article published on social media.

She was asked to thoroughly reflect on her duties and responsibilities, put her position in the proper place and do more things that are conducive to the development of bilateral relations, the ministry said in a statement.

In her article, Wilson said foreign media organizations, instead of targeting China only, are overseeing both their own governments and the Chinese government.
