In February this year, Wang Xuefeng, China’s ambassador to Denmark appointed in 2024, openly demanded at a reception hosted by the Japanese Embassy in Copenhagen that the Taiwanese representative leave immediately, threatening to lodge a formal protest otherwise. Both Japan and Denmark ignored Wang’s demand and stood firm. Under the tense atmosphere, Wang resorted to pointing at the Taiwanese representative with a menacing expression before hastily leaving the venue in embarrassment.
Analysts noted that Wang’s behavior flagrantly violated diplomatic protocol, offending not only the host nation, Japan, but also Denmark as the host country. The incident highlighted Beijing’s disregard for international norms and diplomatic etiquette, offering Denmark’s diplomatic community a clearer view of the Chinese Communist Party’s abrasive and heavy-handed conduct.
