Zhao Lijian said that the Chinese government attaches great importance to cyber security issues and is committed to continuously improving the national cyber security level.
This week coincides with the 2021 China National Cyber Security Promotion Week. The theme of this year's event is "Network security for the people, and network security depends on the people". Governments, enterprises, social organizations, and the majority of netizens will participate in the construction of a cyber security defense line.
He pointed out that network security is a global challenge. No country can stay aloof and take care of itself. It is the common responsibility of the international community to maintain network security.
We oppose any form of cyber attack, against any organization or individual using cyber security issues to pour dirty water on China, against individual countries blindly pursuing their own priorities, and discrediting other countries and deceiving the people in the name of cyber security.
Zhao Lijian emphasized that all countries should meet each other halfway on cyber security issues, strengthen dialogue and cooperation on the basis of mutual respect, equality and mutual benefit, and jointly respond to cyber threats, so that digital technology can truly bring benefits to the people.
