Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi has accused the United States of trying to suppress China's economic and trade activities by repeatedly imposing unilateral sanctions. He made the comments in Beijing on Wednesday. Let's hear what he had to say.

WANG YI Chinese Foreign Minister "We have all seen that for some time, the United States has frequently imposed unilateral sanctions on China and abused Section 301 tariffs. It is almost a frenzy, to suppress China's normal economic and trade activities. This is the quintessential example of bullying in the world today. It shows that some people in the United States have lost their minds in order to maintain their unipolar hegemony. The U.S.' unscrupulous suppression of China does not prove that the United States is strong, but rather exposes the loss of self-confidence of the United States as it cannot solve its own problems. On the contrary, it will cause further damage to the normal operations of international production and supply chains. This does not stop China's rejuvenation. On the contrary, it will inspire the 1.4 billion Chinese people to work harder. The WTO has clearly concluded that the U.S. Section 301 tariffs violate WTO rules and are a violation of international law. International traders across the world with basic common sense also believe that what the United States is doing is harmful to others and not beneficial to itself. As one of the initiators of the WTO, the United States has not only failed to set an example, but has taken the lead in violating the law, and has not only failed to correct its mistakes, but has made mistakes on top of mistakes. How does the U.S. explain the fair competition it claims, and how will it win the trust of the international community? I would like to stress once again that unilateral acts and protectionism run counter to the development trend of the times and will surely be crushed by the wheels of history. At this critical moment of global economic recovery, the international community should tell the U.S. not to create new problems for the world."
