(MENAFN) The Chinese Embassy in Canada suggested that Chinese business deals in Canada ought to avoid being joined with politics and must be handled without prejudice.
Embassy Spokesman Yan Yundong advised against politicizing the acquisition of Canada's construction company Aecon Group Inc. by China's CCCC International Holding Limited (CCCI), seeing how it's merely a business agreement.
The spokesman explained "the concept of 'national security' cannot be boundlessly extended and serve as tool of trade protectionism."
He continued "we are not against Canadian side's security review on foreign mergers, which are Canada's internal affairs. Our concern is Chinese enterprises should not be treated discriminatively in this process."
