Chinanews.com, Beijing, December 28 (Reporter Zhang Su) "The U.S. Embassy and Consulate in China should perform its duty of promoting Sino-U.S. relations and the friendship between the two peoples, rather than spreading false information, attacking and slandering China." Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs Spokesperson Zhao Lijian said at a regular press conference on the 28th.
A reporter asked that in the past few days, the US Embassy in China has repeatedly tweeted the US State Department’s tweets, attacking the Communist Party’s Xinjiang policy, saying that more than 1 million Uyghur Muslims have been detained in "detention camps." What's China's response to this?
Zhao Lijian said that under the leadership of a small number of anti-China politicians, the U.S. diplomatic department has disregarded facts and made out of nothing, and has repeatedly spread false information about Xinjiang.
"I want to emphasize a few points," he said. First, the Xinjiang-related false information concocted by some anti-China politicians in the United States is a "lie of the century."
Last week, the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region government held a press conference on Xinjiang-related issues in Beijing. About 20 mainstream foreign media participated.
Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region government officials, religious figures, graduates from education and training centers, and migrant workers introduced the real situation in Xinjiang based on their personal experiences.
If individual U.S. politicians and officials really want to understand the facts in Xinjiang, they should read the transcripts of the aforementioned press conferences, instead of citing so-called Xinjiang-related reports concocted by individual anti-China forces to continue to spread false information and mislead the international community. .
“Second, Xinjiang’s current social stability, economic development, ethnic unity, religious harmony, and people’s livelihood are improving. People of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang, including the Uyghurs, are living and working in peace and contentment, a peaceful, peaceful and happy life,” said Zhao Lijian. Under the circumstances, the U.S. judicial and law enforcement system has systematic racial discrimination and violent law enforcement.
Polls show that 75% of American Muslims believe that American society has serious discrimination against Muslims.
Since the outbreak, according to official figures released by the United States, more than 1 million people in Florida alone are lining up to apply for unemployment benefits. The figures will not lie.
"Third, the U.S. Embassy and Consulate in China should perform the duty of promoting Sino-U.S. relations and friendship between the two peoples, instead of spreading false information, attacking and slandering China." Zhao Lijian said, according to statistics, since December, the U.S. diplomatic mission to China The consulate issued more than dozens of false information that slandered and smeared China, including articles that unprovoked attacks on the Communist Party of China and China's political system, arousing resentment and indignation among the Chinese people.
Zhao Lijian said that the right to life and health are the greatest human rights. The US government should reflect on it, stop spreading the political virus, stop interfering in China's internal affairs through Xinjiang-related issues, and devote its energy to solving its own problems, effectively protecting the lives of the American people, and safeguarding the human rights of the American people, including ethnic minorities.
