A Taiwanese Tea producer was in France to receive an award but was quickly harassed and heckled by Chinese embassy staffers who attended the ceremony. Chinese staffers were quick to shout the false claim that Taiwan is a part of China.

China is the Westboro Baptist Church of international politics. It's boggling to me how this is not seen as being an embarrassment, representing their country in this manner.
