Original title: the United States imposed sanctions on relevant Chinese personnel and entities on the grounds of so-called human rights in Xinjiang, and the Foreign Ministry responded
According to CCTV news, on the afternoon of December 13, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs held a regular press conference. A reporter asked: the US State Department and the Treasury have imposed sanctions on relevant Chinese personnel and entities on the grounds of the human rights situation in Xinjiang. What is China's response to this?
In this regard, spokesman Wang Wenbin said that based on lies and false information, the United States once again imposed sanctions on relevant Chinese personnel and entities on the grounds of so-called human rights in Xinjiang, which seriously interfered in China's internal affairs, seriously violated the basic norms of international relations, and seriously damaged China US relations. China firmly opposes this and strongly condemns it.
Wang Wenbin pointed out that Xinjiang's affairs are purely China's internal affairs. Xinjiang's development achievements are obvious to all. China's policy of governing Xinjiang is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The United States has no right and qualification to dictate and interfere. The so-called sanctions by the United States have fully exposed the sinister intention of the United States to "control China with Xinjiang" and the hypocritical nature of the United States's false democracy, true power, false human rights and true hegemony.
Wang Wenbin stressed that we warn the US side that the Chinese government is unwavering in its determination to defend national sovereignty, security and development interests, to crack down on violent and terrorist forces, separatist forces and religious extremist forces, and to oppose any interference by external forces in Xinjiang affairs and China's internal affairs. The perverse actions of the United States will not destroy the overall situation of Xinjiang's development, stop China's progress and reverse the trend of historical development. We urge the US side to immediately revoke the relevant wrong decisions and stop interfering in China's internal affairs and harming China's interests. If the United States insists on acting recklessly, China will take effective measures to resolutely fight back. ?
