China News Agency, United Nations, September 23. Ambassador Zhang Jun, Permanent Representative of China to the United Nations, held an international press conference on the 22nd to refute the unreasonable accusations made by the U.S. leader against China during the general debate of the 75th UN General Assembly.
Zhang Jun said that the US's accusation against China in the general debate of the UN General Assembly was unreasonable, and China firmly opposed and rejected it.
China will exercise its right of reply in accordance with the rules of the UN General Assembly and state its solemn position.
Zhang Jun said that the noise made by the United States at the UN General Assembly is very discordant with the atmosphere of the UN General Assembly.
While the international community is fully fighting the new coronavirus, the United States is spreading a "political virus."
At a time when the international community most needed to help, unite and cooperate, the United States abused the UN platform to provoke opposition and create divisions.
When the international community most needs a strong United Nations, the United States is constantly weakening the role of the United Nations, the World Health Organization and other specialized agencies, and weakening the authority and effectiveness of the United Nations.
From yesterday to today, leaders of more than 120 countries, the President of the General Assembly, and the Secretary-General of the United Nations have spoken in the UN General Assembly Hall.
The vast majority of countries call for adhering to multilateralism, strengthening solidarity and cooperation, and jointly coping with global challenges.
This is a clear rejection of unilateralism and bullying. It reflects the universal consensus of the international community and reflects the support of people in all countries in the world.
Zhang Jun said that repeating a lie a thousand times is still a lie.
The US accusation of attacking China has no factual basis and cannot deceive anyone.
Zhang Jun said that China was the first to suffer from the sudden outbreak of new crown pneumonia.
China has made great sacrifices and efforts to control the epidemic in a relatively short period of time.
We always follow an open, transparent, and responsible attitude to inform the World Health Organization and other countries in the world as soon as possible, share experience, and actively provide assistance to many countries including the United States.
China has made important contributions to the global fight against the epidemic, and has been highly recognized and universally praised by the international community. No one can deny this.
In contrast to the United States, its response to the epidemic was a complete failure.
The United States has the most advanced medical technology and the most complete medical system in the world, but it has become the country with the largest number of diagnoses and deaths in the world.
Many countries where the outbreak coincided with the United States have effectively controlled the epidemic, but the domestic epidemic in the United States is still spreading. The reasons behind it are thought-provoking.
Zhang Jun said that China's determination to tackle climate change and protect the earth's environment is unwavering.
China's carbon dioxide emissions in 2018 were 45.8% lower than in 2005, and the 2020 emission reduction target was achieved two years ahead of schedule.
In his speech to the UN General Assembly today, President Xi announced that China’s carbon dioxide emissions will reach a peak by 2030 and strive to achieve carbon neutrality by 2060. This demonstrates China’s firm determination to tackle climate change and establishes commitment to fulfilling its promises The model.
China has always been earnestly implementing the Basel Convention and has made positive contributions to global environmental governance.
In contrast, the United States, as the country with the most accumulated greenhouse gas emissions in the world, neither ratified the Kyoto Protocol nor withdrew from the Paris Agreement. It is completely isolated from the global carbon emission system and arrangements and has become the largest international community’s cooperation in tackling climate change. Spoiler.
At the same time, as the world’s largest exporter of solid waste and a major consumer of plastics per capita, the United States refuses to ratify the Basel Convention and transfers a large amount of waste to developing countries, arbitrarily disregarding the global environment and global people’s health. The international community is clear at a glance.
Zhang Jun pointed out that facts have proved that unilateralism and bullying are on the opposite side of history and are doomed to a dead end.
The United States, out of self-interest, provoked confrontation and division in the United Nations, which is unpopular and will not succeed.
For the United States, the top priority is to control the epidemic, save lives, and solve its own problems.
Some American politicians blindly shirked their responsibilities and blamed others too much. They could not save wasted time and could not solve any problems.
These people should wake up from their self-designed hallucinations.
