China on Friday pushed back on claims it was operating ‘police stations’ on U.S. soil.

Safeguard Defenders, a Europe-based human rights organization, published a report in September revealing the presence of dozens of Chinese police “service stations” in major cities around the world, including New York.

“They assist overseas Chinese nationals who need help in accessing the online service platform to get their driving licenses renewed and receive physical check-ups for that purpose,” Embassy spokesman Liu Pengyu said in an email to Reuters on Friday.

Members of the British parliament have also called for investigations into similar sites.
