Vice-FM: Smearing China without evidence work of 'evil wolves'

Certain countries and individuals that smear China unscrupulously without any evidence are nothing less than "evil wolves", Vice-Foreign Minister Qin Gang said on Tuesday.

Qin made the remark at a press briefing on the China-CEEC Summit while responding to a question of China conducting wolf warrior diplomacy.

Facing crazy attacks against China, Chinese diplomats must of course stand out and say no, which is different from showing a tough attitude, he said.

It is unreasonable to slander China while preempting the country from fighting back, he added.

China has never spread lies or disinformation and on the contrary, is a victim of various rumors and disinformation, he said.
