Huawei boss had Christmas with family as jailed Canadians got to phone home
- Canada allowed family of Meng Wanzhou to visit her
- Ottawa believes China sees detentions are bargaining chip
Chinese authorities have said they allowed two imprisoned Canadians to phone their families at Christmas – the first time one of the men had spoken with his family in more than two years.
Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor were both permitted brief calls home, a move which Chinese officials said was motivated by “humanitarian considerations”.
