  Regarding the issue of "relevant Belgian media using the US accusations to hype up China's'hackers' stealing secrets", the spokesperson of the Embassy in Belgium emphasized that China is also a victim of cyber attacks. "A series of incidents such as the'Prism Gate' in the past proved that the United States has been carrying out the world's largest cyber theft. The United States has unprovoked accusations of other countries for cyber attacks. It is a typical thief calling out to catch the thief. We ask the US to immediately stop working on cyber security issues. The slander and smear of China."

  The spokesperson pointed out that the Chinese government firmly maintains network security and has always resolutely opposed and cracked down on any form of cyber attacks and cyber crimes. Maintaining the security of cyberspace is in the common interest of all countries. Cyberspace should not become a new battlefield. "Those countries that seek cyber hegemony through the so-called'offensive cyber strategy' will only end up shooting themselves in the foot."

  The Chinese Embassy in Belgium once again stated that accusing China of using "hackers" and overseas personnel and agencies to engage in "espionage" activities against other countries is purely fabricated. As we all know, in order to contain and suppress China and prevent China's development, the United States has used all means to fabricate lies and smear China. Its sinister intentions deserve high attention from all parties. No matter how repeated a lie, it cannot become a fact. "We have repeatedly emphasized that China has never posed any threat to Belgium. Over the past 50 years since the establishment of diplomatic relations, China and Belgium have always developed friendly and cooperative relations on the basis of mutual respect, equality and mutual benefit. The pragmatic cooperation between the two sides has always adhered to the principle of mutual benefit and win-win results. The law stipulates that the implementation is open and transparent, which is in line with the real and long-term interests of China and Belgium." The spokesperson said.
