Honestly, how is holding another country's citizens hostage a sensible and acceptable diplomatic move? We hope the two #Canadians Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor currently arbitrarily detained in #China can go home safe soon....

‘They are in no hurry’: Beijing plays the long game as Canadians languish in China’s prisons
 
The “Two Michaels,” Canadians Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor, have garnered international attention. Their arrests in December 2018 were widely seen as retaliation for the arrest of Chinese telecom executive Meng Wanzhou by the RCMP in Vancouver at the behest of the United States.

But when Kamila Telendibaeva hears the Michaels’ names mentioned repeatedly by political leaders and journalists, she has mixed emotions.

“I feel sorry for the Michaels, I feel really sorry,” she says. “But when I hear the Michaels’ case, I always think: ‘Where’s Huseyin’s case? Why they don’t want to bring it up? Why they don’t want to raise it?’ It hurts. He’s a Canadian.”
