Beijing's new ethnic-unity law is a long-arm instrument, and Beijing is testing how far it stretches

Beijing's new Ethnic Unity Law is being read in Tokyo, Canberra and Brussels as an extraterritorial instrument first and a domestic statute second, and the first seventy-two hours suggest Beijing is testing how far the perimeter travels.

Desk note: Monexus read the ethnic-unity law primarily as an extraterritorial-architecture story, anchored in the foreign-ministry and business-federation responses Nikkei documents, rather than as a domestic-rights story covered from Beijing press conferences. The Chinese government position that the law is a routine sovereignty measure is reported here as a position, not as a verdict.
