Question: The UK Security Service (MI5), together with intelligence agencies from other "Five Eyes" countries, has issued a so-called “warning” alleging that Chinese intelligence services are approaching individuals in Western countries through fake online recruitment schemes in order to steal military, political, and technological intelligence. What is your comment?

Embassy Spokesperson: The allegation of so-called “Chinese espionage threat” is entirely fabricated and constitutes malicious slander. We strongly condemn this.

It must be pointed out that the "Five Eyes" are the world’s largest intelligence network. Its members have engaged in unscrupulous espionage and intelligence-gathering activities around the globe. Their activities are the real threat to peace-loving countries.

We urge the UK side to immediately stop this clumsy self-staged show of thief crying catch thief. Otherwise, it will only bring shame upon itself.
