Beijing dismissed a European Union report charging China and Russia with conducting coronavirus disinformation campaigns as a “false accusation”.
According to AFP, Brussels says China and Russia have sought to undermine European democracy and burnish their own reputations during the pandemic with “targeted influence operations and disinformation campaigns”.
Chinese foreign ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying said the report “avoids the clear facts”.
“This false accusation against China is itself disinformation. We never bragged or relied on disinformation to improve our image. The virus is the common enemy of mankind, and disinformation is also a common enemy of mankind.”
