Beijing assured that cybersecurity is a global challenge, especially, China is also a victim of cyber attacks.
Accusations by the United States and Great Britain of criminal cyber activities against China are attempts to discredit the country and “a political maneuver to unjustly impose sanctions.” This is what Chinese Foreign Ministry Speaker Lin Jian said in a briefing, reports Ukrinform.
He claimed that Beijing had previously provided London with technical explanations and answers about the involvement of the hacker group APT31 (Advanced Persistent Threat Group 31) in the Chinese Ministry of State Security, which “proved insufficient evidence of the British side and the lack of professionalism in the conclusions of its investigation.” But “the British side has not given any answer,” the spokesman said.
Beijing has already protested to Washington and London and pledged that China will take the necessary measures to protect its legitimate rights and interests.
The Chinese Embassy in this country has responded to the PRC’s accusation of malicious cyber activity on the part of New Zealand, noting that it considers the New Zealand side’s statements about the Chinese government’s funding of a group of hackers hacked the resources of its parliamentary institutions.
Chinese diplomats have noted that cybersecurity is a global challenge and that China is also a victim of cyber attacks.
As you know, the media previously wrote that Russian and Chinese spies are changing tactics in Europe. If Russia used to operate intelligence officers under diplomatic cover, now Russian spies pose as journalists and employees of non-governmental organizations.
