The spokesperson for the Chinese Foreign Ministry strongly denounced U.S. State Secretary Rubio who recently said in Latin America China’s investments are “predatory practices,” which come attached with “a huge loan” that can never be repaid by the locals.
The U.S. spreads disinformation to sow discord between China and other countries, the spokesperson said and added that such malicious attempt will never succeed.
He continued that investment cooperation between China and the rest of the world is based on mutual respect, equality and mutual benefit, openness and mutual accommodation and win-win results; there’s nothing to support the so-called “debt trap” narrative; and the world can see clearly who exactly is being coercive and predatory.
He urged the U.S. to reflect on what it has done to developing countries in Latin America and the Caribbean through bullying and predatory behavior, and stop vilifying China.
