#1 The French know they are participating with the western "coalition of the willing" in the Freedom Of Navigation exercises in the South China Sea; Why would they let their man get caught up in China???

#2 "Why would they let their man get caught up in China???"

uhhh....the "missing" guy is a Chinese national and former Vice Minister of the Public Security Bureau in ChiComm land. This guy is in the klink and will likely wake up dead one morning.

#3 Naw, he's fine.
They've installed all the new chips and are working through some software glitches. He'll be back on top of his game in no time.

#4 who in their right mind would put "the vice minister of public security in China" in charge of international criminal apprehension. Fox, henhouse.

#7 Pity this is a one-off because it cries out for the "Pierre, you've lost another Chinaman?" card.

#8 This morning the Daily Mail reported his wife and children now are being guarded by French police after phone and social media threats were received. Also,

Hong Kong’s South China Morning Post said the Interpol chief had been taken away for questioning by Chinese authorities as soon as he landed in the country.
