      It's very likely that Chinese bot accounts came and mass reported/flagged it like they do with any other video that makes China look bad.
      Every single UA-camr that covers China gets demonetized all the time, and sometimes gets their videos completely removed because of these scum. They've done very well on silencing people.

    Josh & Archie, I believe you should talk to a UA-cam representative. The engagement on this video is very telling that the channel is being shadow cached by UA-cam servers.

    1:05 „by law, they are legally considered territory of a country they represent“. Wrong, read the Vienna Convention. The embassy operates under the law of its own jurisdiction but is still considered the national territory of the host state (with immunity rights within the premises of the mission). This doesn't mean the territory belongs to the mission's state. No, the chancery's premises aren't Chinese territory. Entertaining video, nonetheless.

      The Balloon didn't even went near the Embassy grounds, so it's a double fail.
