China News Agency, Beijing, July 7 (Reporter Zhang Ziyang) Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian said in Beijing on the 7th that China closely follows the developments of the US policy and will fully protect the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese students studying in the United States.
A reporter asked: For your first question, WHO said that it will send an expert team to China this week to carry out a new crown virus traceability investigation. Can you provide relevant details? For example, when does the expert group set off and how to schedule in China? The second question, the United States announced on the 6th to adjust the visa policy for international students. International students in the United States, such as the fall semester, are completely online and will not be allowed to stay in the United States. What is China's comment?
Zhao Lijian said that on the first issue, China has always believed that virus tracing is a scientific issue, and scientists and medical experts should carry out relevant research. Since the outbreak, China and WHO have maintained close communication and cooperation on virus tracing. Chinese scientists have also conducted scientific exchanges with their international counterparts. China continues to support scientists from all over the world to carry out global scientific research on the source and spread of viruses. As for the specific issues you care about, I have no news to release at the moment.
