Indian, Iranian diaspora hold protests in London against China’s expansionist policies

Indian diaspora and a group of demonstrators led by displaced Muslims of Iranian origin demonstrated outside the Chinese embassy in London on July 12 against China’s expansionist policies and aggression at its border with India.
The protestors were joined by a few activists from Pakistan occupied Kashmir. They demanded that China should free Hong Kong and stop exploiting resources in Gilgit Baltistan, the part of erstwhile princely state of Jammu and Kashmir.
The demonstrators also raised slogans of “Down with China” alleging it an occupier.
“We are the victim of Chinese aggression as the China Pakistan Economic Corridor passes through Gilgit Baltistan and over 6,000 Chinese army and engineers are present in PoK with an aim to expand CPEC project,” said Dr Amjad Ayub Mirza, a political activist from PoK.
Anti-China protests have erupted in parts of the world ever since the face-off between Indian and Chinese forces in Galwan on June 15 which left 20 Indian soldiers dead in the battle.
