He was detained in February 2022 while eating lunch with a Japanese diplomat at a restaurant in a Beijing hotel where he often met with foreign friends, the statement said. The diplomat was also detained, triggering a strong protest from Japan’s Foreign Ministry. The diplomat was released after several hours, but Dong has remained in detention.
Dong’s case has drawn international attention, with the National Press Club in Washington, D.C., issuing a statement on Monday calling for his release.
