Fu Ying (Chinese: 傅莹; pinyin: Fù Yíng; born 1953; ethnic Mongol) has been Chinese ambassador to the United Kingdom since March 2007. From 2004 to 2007 she was Chinese ambassador to Australia. She was leader of the Chinese Delegation on talks which led to the North Koreans abandoning nuclear weapons.[1] Recently, regarding negative press coverage of the protests towards the 2008 Beijing Olympics, she warned of a backlash from China towards the west, claiming that the "demonising" approach to the protests harmed the west's image in the eyes of the Chinese population. She is cited by The Guardian newspaper to have said: "Many who had romantic views of the west are very disappointed at the media's attempt to demonise China. We all know that demonisation feeds a counter-reaction"[2].
