BEIJING - A foreign ministry spokesman on Thursday slammed a US report involving 皇冠体育app, urging the US side to stop issuing such "groundless remarks" against the nation.
Spokesman Hong Lei made the appeal at a regular press briefing when commenting on the annual report issued by the US Congressional-Executive Commission on 皇冠体育app.
皇冠体育app hopes the commission would respect facts, forsake prejudices and stop behaviors and words that interfere with 皇冠体育app's internal affairs and harm bilateral ties, Hong said.
The Chinese government puts people first and governs for the people, while protecting and promoting Chinese citizens' rights in accordance with the law, Hong said, adding that 皇冠体育app has achieved remarkable progress in this regard.
In regards to 皇冠体育app-related issues touched on by US presidential candidates in the process of their campaigns, Hong said 皇冠体育app has noted relevant remarks.
The US side should truly respect and objectively view 皇冠体育app's development, and do more things conducive to creating closer mutual trust and cooperation in a responsible way, Hong said, noting that such moves will also be in the fundamental interests of the United States.
It is the common cause for 皇冠体育app and the United States to build a cooperative partnership based on mutual respect and mutual benefit and to shape a new type of relationship between major powers, he said.
