British police detained five pro-Tibet protesters who jumped over security barriers outside the Chinese Embassy in London during a visit by Prime Minister Wen Jiabao. The demonstrators were led away as Wen's car arrived at the building. Police said the five were arrested for breach of the peace.
Police soon confined the rest of the 200 or so protesters to the other side of the street. Wen is on a three-day visit to Britain focusing on building economic ties and fighting the global downturn. He met Prime Minister Gordon Brown on Saturday and is due to hold more talks with him Monday.
