The Chinese leader's message in San Francisco got the attention of U.S. officials because it was delivered at a meeting that was intended to reduce tensions.
China is hostage state that nurtures Stockholm Syndrome in it’s population (similar to DPRK and others). You can only “leave” if it’s deemed useful and safe for China (i.e. you have Stockholm Syndrome strongly enough). And those that leave are still under control, i.e. their (edited) behavior can be coerced by using carrot and stick methods on their family and loved ones.
I suppose it’s within the technical abilities of the more powerful countries to do this, but that’s the point isn’t it? Only China is the one that maintains enforcement officers in other countries to ensure Chinese people in other countries are acting and speaking in ways approved by the Chinese government and if rules are broken consequences come to you or your loved ones in China.
My friends that moved from the U.S. to Ireland, Costa Rica are not under such control by the U.S. governement. My friend in Costa Rica can make a blog about how much the U.S. sucks and speak against Biden and be in no danger from U.S. officials coming to arrest her or agents in the U.S. coming to arrest her family that remains in the U.S. This is not true of Chinese people outside of China.

Uhm, you can freely leave China? And unless you’re a secret FBI agent, your family is probably safe.
I’ve heard those stories of “secret Chinese police in the Netherlands”, but they are based on words of like one man without decent confirmation
