Transcription of the video. The translation is made by a live translator in the press room.

News 1 Korea: White House said in a statement following Presidents Lee Jae-myung’s election that the ROK holds free election while the US is concerned about China’s interference in global diplomacies. What is your comment?

Lin Jian: We noticed this. China follows the principle of non-interference in other countries’ internal affairs. We have never interfered with other countries’ internal affairs and will not do so. China is not a mirror image of the US. The US should stop speculating what China will do based on its own behavior and stop sewing discord between China and ROK.

Transcription provided by the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, with slightly different translation.

News 1 Korea: Today, the White House congratulated Lee Jae-myung on winning the presidency, and expressed its concern over China’s interference and influence in democracies around the world. What’s China’s take on this?

Lin Jian: We saw that statement. China always follows the principle of non-interference in other countries’ internal affairs, and has never and will never interfere in the internal affairs of any country. We urge the U.S. to change the habit of assuming that China would act in the way that the U.S. does, and stop trying to sow discord between China and the ROK.

    guys i think china is about to go to africa and steal all their people as slaves and use the slaves to build their entire society and then call the descendants of those slaves lazy criminals and lock them up in privately owned prisons so they can be slaves like their ancestors were

    i also think china is gonna let a terrorist attack happen and then use it as an excuse to invade every country but the one who likely did the attack because the one who attacked them is their ally

    It’s true. China literally just does what basic social studies would tell you is the correct government policy, and somehow it always fucking shocks the US.

    They’re doing state investment and adjusting their fiscal and monetary policy based on business cycles as per basic keynesianism?!?! But that’s cheating!!!

      Their monetary policy doesn’t exist as an extension of the republican party electoral campaign apparatus? That’s currency manipulation!
