First, it is an international practice to charter flights to evacuate overseas Chinese in times of crisis. China often organizes chartered flights to evacuate overseas Chinese. 20 18 Operation Red Sea, a popular movie in the Spring Festival, is actually set in Yemen to evacuate overseas Chinese. In the summer of 20 18, Typhoon Tan Mei attacked Japan, and China also organized charter flights to evacuate compatriots stranded in Osaka. In addition, after the COVID-19 outbreak in China, overseas Chinese and overseas students in Iran also enthusiastically donated money and materials. However, we must understand that there is no charter flight to pick up Chinese in China to evacuate overseas Chinese and study abroad. China people are people who have joined a foreign nationality. Strictly speaking, they are no longer from China. One more thing, as early as February 2, 2020, Iran announced that it would cut off its air service with China, so overseas Chinese and overseas students could not return home through normal channels, so they had to send a charter flight to pick them up.

Second, at that time, the global COVID-19 epidemic was not serious, and it was possible to evacuate overseas Chinese from Iran by charter flight alone. On March 3rd, the only countries with serious epidemic in COVID-19 were Iran and South Korea, and European and American countries have not taken the COVID-19 epidemic seriously. At that time, South Korea didn't cut off its air links with China, and overseas Chinese and students in South Korea could return home by themselves. At that time, there were 2,335 confirmed cases of COVID-19 and 77 people died. Most overseas Chinese and students want to return to China. In fact, the number of Iranian overseas Chinese and students studying abroad is in the order of thousands, and China has the ability to take them back by charter flight.
Then, since we can charter flights to take Iranian overseas Chinese and international students back to China, why are netizens still arguing about whether to take small British students? Things are different now. COVID-19 epidemic has occurred in more than 200 countries all over the world, and the country has no ability to take back all overseas students and overseas Chinese who want to come back. In Britain alone, there are as many as 95,000 international students and more than 300,000 overseas Chinese.
Third, our country tries its best to bring back international students and ensure their health. It is unrealistic to take back all the15,000 foreign students in Britain, but China is ready to take back some foreign students who have difficulties. At 9: 30am on April 2nd, 2020, the first charter flight from China has taken off, which will take back 188 small international students stranded in the UK. In addition, China has sent 500,000 overseas students through its embassies in various countries? Health package? , including 1 1 10,000 masks and 500,000 disinfectant.
International student health package.
Under the premise of ensuring that the domestic epidemic will not recur, it is understandable to send charter flights to pick up some overseas students and overseas Chinese stranded abroad. However, it is impossible for the state to take it all back, and many parents of international students do not need moral kidnapping.
