The Embassy, meanwhile, it is reported that it has applied to Twitter seeking to unlock the account.
“This is double standards. There is so-called freedom of media, but on the other hand, they suspend and lock any account that is not on their agenda,” a Chinese Embassy spokesperson said.

The newspaper however defended its right to publish comments by anyone.
