Javier García is a veteran Spanish journalist who previously led various news bureaus in Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, Africa and Asia for Spain's official news agency Agencia EFE. In 2018, he came to China as a representative of the EFE office in China.

Four years later, he felt that "the annoying anti-China information war had almost exhausted his journalism career ideals", so he quit his journalism job. Garcia is now a professor at the School of Journalism at Renmin University of China. He spoke about the way he saw China's development.
