Comment on China abducted its own citizens on EU territory, report finds

The law. Yes, abduction and kidnapping are only possible when they are done illegally. Illegality is a crucial part of what those terms mean.
You’re essentially making the libertarian “tax is theft” argument: it would be criminal if I did it to you, so it must be criminal when the government does it to you.

No dude, it isn’t. At all.

Non-legal definitions of those terms also imply illegality. There is no legal way to kidnap someone.

There are a wide variety of legal ways to kidnap someone. Such as the one I described which happened to me.

How is this logic different from the article’s? You’re both calling a legal arrest you don’t like “kidnapping.”
