Beijing (HRNW) China on Friday rejected US accusations it is failing to stop human trafficking and said Washington has no right to criticize due to its history of racial discrimination.
Beijing was among 17 governments that were warned on Thursday of potential US sanctions over human trafficking, adding to tension with Washington. Others included Malaysia, Russia, and Nicaragua.
“We firmly oppose the US unfounded accusations against China based on lies and rumors,” Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin said. He accused Washington of “smearing China” and interfering in its affairs.
