On December 28, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs held a regular press conference in which it responded to the U.S.'s defense of officials applying for visas for the Beijing Winter Olympics.
Zhao Lijian responded that on the one hand, the United States claimed that "there would be no diplomatic or official representatives" on the one hand, and on the other hand it applied for visas for officials from various departments such as the State Council and the Ministry of National Defense. This set of rhetoric is puzzling.

Zhao Lijian said: "We once again urge the United States to practice the Olympic spirit, not to politicize sports, and to stop any wrong words and deeds that interfere with the Beijing Winter Olympics. (Produced by Liu Peng)
