Chinese officials forcibly removed British journalists from a G20 meeting between Prime Minister Keir Starmer and President Xi Jinping in Rio de Janeiro on Monday. Reporters were aggressively ushered out as Starmer raised human rights issues during their first meeting in over six years.

Xi and Starmer met in Rio de Janeiro on the sidelines of the Group of 20 summit on Monday, according to Xinhua. The meeting is the first to take place between a British prime minister and Xi since 2018.
