China taunts the head of the CIA.
The spokesman of the Chinese Foreign Ministry said sarcastically in response to the US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) chief’s information leak against his country that he thanked him for revealing the spies of this organization.
At a press conference on Friday, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin sarcastically thanked CIA Director William Burns for revealing that his “spies are everywhere.”
William Burns, in an article he recently published in “Foreign Affairs” magazine, described China as a “great long-term threat” against his country and wrote that the CIA “resources spent on China-related intelligence gathering, operations and analysis around the world to It has increased significantly and has doubled the percentage of the total budget that it has focused on China in the last two years.”
“We are recruiting and training more Mandarin (the official language of the People’s Republic of China) speaking force, while expanding our efforts around the world, from Latin America to Africa,” William Burns wrote in an article published Monday. And Indo-Pacific we are intensifying to compete with China.
“I thank him for reminding me of these issues,” Wang Wenbin said in a press conference, commenting on these statements by the head of the CIA. “China will take precautions as usual and will not allow the US to infiltrate through illegal means.”
This official of the Chinese Foreign Ministry stated, following the talks in Beijing: “William Burns, as the head of the largest spy organization in the world, publicly revealed to everyone that American spies are everywhere.”
Wang Wenbin stressed: “China adheres to the path of peaceful development. “China’s development creates opportunities for the development of the world and the growth of peace-supporting forces in the world.”
In his article, the head of the US Central Intelligence Agency also admitted that America no longer has an “undisputed advantage” in the world’s strategic competitions.
“China’s rise to power and Russia’s confrontationalism present daunting geopolitical challenges in a world of intense strategic competition in which the United States no longer holds the undisputed supremacy,” Burns wrote in a note in Foreign Affairs.
