China News Service, May 4. According to the website of the Chinese Embassy in the United States, the spokesperson of the Chinese Embassy in the United States recently answered reporters' questions and refuted the US State Department's statement on the 2nd that the so-called Chinese officials and media were involved in the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. Spread and amplify Russia's "propaganda, conspiracy theories and false information" on the Ukraine issue.

　　A reporter asked: On May 2, the US State Department website issued a statement "China Amplifies Russia's Voice on the Ukraine Issue", saying that Chinese officials and media disseminate and amplify Russia's "propaganda, conspiracy theories and false information" on the Ukraine issue. Rationalizing Russia's unreasonable war against Ukraine shows China's support for Russia.

What is the response to this?

　　The spokesperson said that China's position on the Ukraine issue is fair, objective and beyond reproach.

When it comes to spreading false information, the US should seriously reflect on it.

U.S. officials and media have successively spread such rumors that China has prior knowledge, tacitly condoned Russia, helped Russia evade sanctions, and gave Russia military support. These are false information.

The US has waged wars in Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria over the years, killing 335,000 civilians. This is not false information.

The vast majority of countries in the world advocate that the conflict between Russia and Ukraine should be resolved through dialogue and negotiation, and do not want to see the situation escalate or even get out of control.

　　The spokesperson said that in November 2021, the United States submitted a working paper to the Conference of the Parties to the Biological Weapons Convention, recognizing that the United States has 26 biological laboratories and other cooperative facilities in Ukraine.

In March 2022, the "fact document" released by the US Department of Defense showed that the United States has 46 "cooperative facilities" in Ukraine.

This is not false information.

The United States should welcome the international community to jointly conduct inspections under the framework of the United Nations and the Biological Weapons Convention.

　　The spokesperson pointed out that both China and the United States are permanent members of the Security Council, and should work together with the international community to push for an early political solution to the Ukrainian crisis; realize a ceasefire and end the war as soon as possible, increase humanitarian assistance to Uzbekistan, and protect civilians from harm; strengthen coordination , to maintain the security of world energy, food, and supply chains.

Blame and smear will not solve the problem.
