On February 22, Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Wang Wenbin hosted a regular press conference.
A reporter asked:
On February 18, the American independent news website "Gray Zone" published an article stating that the US government’s statement of the “Chinese government’s genocide of ethnic minorities in Xinjiang” was based on a research report full of data abuse and false information. Point out that the author of the report, Zheng Guoen, worked for a foundation operated by US intelligence agencies and was an extreme rightist.
What is China's comment?
Wang Wenbin replied:
We have noticed the relevant articles published in the "grey area" of the American independent news website, in which a large amount of data and facts pointed out that Zheng Guoen's report abused data, distorted information, fabricated cases, taken out of context and logical contradictions, exposing Zheng Guoen's true face and argumentation The so-called "Chinese government's genocide of ethnic minorities in Xinjiang" is an outright lie. The above reports in the US media also show that facts are more eloquent and fair and free.
For a period of time, Zheng Guoen and some international anti-China forces concocted Xinjiang-related rumors and lies for their own ulterior political purposes, attempted to use fake news to gain eyeballs, splash dirty water and label China.
However, no matter how renovated their "deception" is, they are vulnerable to the truth.
One day, Zheng Guoen and others' unscrupulous rumors and slander will be brought to justice.
We hope that the international community can recognize the true colors of these anti-China forces and not be confused by rumors and lies.
Recently, more and more people of insight in the international community have understood the situation in Xinjiang and understood the Xinjiang-related policies of the Chinese government. They have taken the initiative to speak out and speak up.
I hope that more foreign media will report from an objective and fair perspective.
We hope that some countries and people will face up to the facts of Xinjiang’s stable development, listen to the voices of the 25 million people of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang, and read more objective reports on Xinjiang from the international community.
