Chinese embassy blasts US defence chief for ‘attack and smear’ in Singapore lecture
Lloyd Austin’s comments in the island nation defied the one-China policy and Three Communiques that underpin Sino-US ties, embassy says
The lengthy Facebook missive also says Washington should stop ‘acting like a preacher’ and approach ties in Asia in a humble manner
In a statement on its website, the Chinese embassy in Singapore said Austin “not only interfered in China’s internal affairs by referring to matters relating to Taiwan and Xinjiang, but also played up the so-called China threat in an attempt to drive a wedge between China and its neighbours”.
