Wu Xin said that the terrorist organization of the Eastern Iraqi Movement was terrorized. While activities are still rampant, relevant US politicians withdrew the identification of the "Eastern Iraq Movement" terrorist organization, which is another manifestation of the US's "politicization" and "instrumentation" of anti-terrorism issues. Fear of containing China.

　　"We firmly oppose the implementation of'double standards' on the issue of counter-terrorism, and oppose the use of ethnicity, religion, human rights and other excuses to condone and support terrorist activities. We will work with the international community to resolutely combat the'Eastern Iranian Movement' and other terrorist forces as always and do our best to safeguard Peace and tranquility in the country and the international region."
