China News Agency, Beijing, May 8 (Liang Yi) Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Geng Shuang said at a regular press conference on the 8th that “Cui Tiankai, Chinese ambassador to the United States, made a request to the US during the meeting between the heads of state of China and the United States at Haihu Manor, the report that Harris, the commander of the US Pacific Command, was dismissed in exchange for China to exert more pressure on North Korea was nonsense.
A reporter asked a question. Japan’s Kyodo news agency recently wrote a report by quoting “sources”, saying that Cui Tiankai, China’s ambassador to the United States, made a request to the United States on behalf of the Chinese government during the meeting between the heads of state of China and the United States at Haihu Manor, in exchange for China to exert more pressure on North Korea, the position of Harris, the commander of the US Pacific Command who fought hard against Huaqiang was dismissed. Is the message true?
Geng Shuang responded that the report was nonsense and worth refuting.
The reporter asked, this is not the first time that Kyodo news has made up new news about China by quoting “sources. Do you have any comments on this practice of the society?
“Kyodo News is also a relatively large media. I thought such media cherished their reputation. However, as far as the above reports are concerned, I don’t know whether Kyodo News is so naive that I believe that China and the United States will discuss the issue of personnel appointment and removal of the US military in a diplomatic occasion, or whether it is so depressed that we have to live by doing nothing but selling news with people’s eyes, or have ulterior motives and intentionally spread rumors to achieve what purpose.” Geng Shuang said.
