Beijing to take retaliatory measures against countries restricting entry of Chinese - MFA

Beijing will retaliate against those states and regions that have imposed entry restrictions on Chinese citizens under the pretext of preventive measures to combat coronavirus, Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Mao Ning said at a briefing, Qazet.az reports according to TASS.

“We strongly oppose attempts to manipulate epidemic prevention and control measures to achieve political goals,” she said, adding that depending on different situations, China will take measures in accordance with the principle of reciprocity.

At the end of 2022, an increase in the incidence of COVID was recorded in China.
