While the conditions are terrible and it's obviously a made up charge, her governement is pretty much China.

She was born in China and lived in Australia from she was 10 until she was 20-21 and then she moved to China, where she has lived for the last 27 years. So ~37 of her 47 years was spent in China, and over a decade of that was spent working for a governement owned propaganda outlet.

She is technically an Australian citizen, which she became in 2003, after she had already moved to China.

Important context, thanks. Her letter reads totally different now.
