In response to #US Deputy Secretary of State Kurt Campbell’s remarks on China presenting the “top challenge” to the US in all of its history, Chinese FM spokesperson Lin Jian said on Thursday that the US official’s words disregard the facts, openly exaggerate the concept of a so-called Chinese threat, incite camp confrontation, and are filled with Cold War zero-sum thinking and ideological bias, toward which #China expresses strong dissatisfaction.
