China Counters US Tactics to Limit and Distort Media Free Speech! (17.3.2020)

China’s basic national policy of adhering to opening up has not changed, nor will it change.

What we are opposed to is ideological prejudice against China. We are opposed to the US generating ‘fake news’ and protecting this process through the so-called ‘freedom of the press’. We are opposed to acts that violate journalistic ethics. It is hoped that the foreign media (and journalists) will play an active role in promoting mutual understanding between China and the world.
