China has cautioned the UK government against politicizing the dispute over the Scunthorpe steel plant, emphasizing that such actions could dissuade Chinese investment in the UK. A spokesperson for the Chinese foreign ministry asserted that Jingye, the owner of British Steel, operated as a commercial entity in attempting to close the plant, rather than as a representative of the Chinese government. The ongoing tensions highlight concerns over the future of Chinese business interests in the UK amidst political disagreements.
