A US senator has warned China to back off in the growing confrontation over a mural painted on a brick wall in Corvallis, Oregon, that advocates independence for Taiwan and Tibet.
“The mural will remain so long as the Americans who painted and host it wish it to remain,” Senator Ron Wyden of Oregon wrote in a letter to Chinese Ambassador to the US Zhang Yesui (張業遂) lecturing China on the freedom of speech.
