On December 2, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian presided over a regular press conference.

  A reporter asked: According to reports, on the morning of the 1st local time, the U.S. military used 54 tanker trucks to transport a new batch of oil it smuggled in northeast Syria to the U.S. military base in northern Iraq.

What is the spokesperson's comment?

  Zhao Lijian said that I have noticed the relevant reports, and I also noticed that the Syrian people said that the actions of the US military made them have to survive the cold winter.

According to official statistics from Syria, from 2011 to the first half of this year, illegal mining by the U.S. military has caused hundreds of billions of dollars in losses to Syria.

  It is illegal for the US to station troops in Syria, it is illegal to steal oil and food in Syria, and it is also illegal to conduct missile attacks on Syria.

It is such a United States that constantly violates international laws and international rules, but has repeatedly advertised that it will maintain the "rules-based international order."

The so-called "rules" by the US are nothing but an excuse and a cover to serve its own interests and maintain its hegemony.

I have noticed that the former French ambassador to the United States, Gérard Arrow, and other people recently said that even if what they want to do violates international law, the United States will do whatever it wants, because the standards that define the rules are in their hands.

I believe that the international community has a clear understanding of this behavior of the United States and will be highly vigilant.
