At the regular press conference that day, a reporter asked questions. U.S. President Trump hinted on Twitter that China was involved in previous large-scale cyberattacks on U.S. government agencies. What's China's response to this?
Wang Wenbin said that China is a staunch defender of cyber security and one of the biggest victims of hacker attacks.
China has always resolutely opposed and combated any form of cyber attacks and cyber crimes.
China firmly opposes the politicization and stigmatization of cybersecurity issues. This not only does not help solve the problem of hacker attacks, but will weaken mutual trust between countries and affect normal cooperation between countries in this field.
On the issue of cyber security, the United States has its own bad reputation and is the least qualified to point fingers at other countries.
