Reply to comment by theFrenchDutch in Hong Kong protester dragged into Manchester Chinese consulate grounds and beaten up by AlxIp
So technically under UN law / law of nations type stuff, embassy land belongs to the country whose embassy it is. This is a show of good faith, and also lets those working in the embassy abide by the laws of their home country.
What the Chinese did here, then, was kidnap an English citizen across international borders to torture him.
When a foreign country is kidnapping your citizens, that is what I do believe the UN calls "I don't care if it's your embassy China you are violating every notion of peace ever conceived"

No whataboutism here but the UN hasn't done fuck all in the past when countries have done exactly that and often to many, many people.

The UN isn't a governmental body in that sense. It doesn't ever do anything,ember nations might do something under the color of the UN.
