[foreign Ministry: it is not up to the United States to decide whether China is a developing country] on 12 May, Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin held a regular press conference. A reporter asked: not long ago, the US House of Representatives passed the "China is not a developing country Act," requiring the US State Department to exert influence on international organizations to abolish China's status as a developing country. Recently, the United States will propose another resolution opposing China's status as a developing country in the WTO. Some commentators believe that this move by the United States has once again exposed the true face of suppressing and containing China by putting its domestic law above international law. How did the spokesman respond to this? Wang Wenbin said: China is recognized by all parties as the largest developing country, and the United States wants to give China the hat of a "developed country." Sorry, China cannot wear this hat. China is a developing country with sufficient factual basis. It is China's legitimate right to safeguard its status as a developing country. It is not up to the United States to decide whether China belongs to a developing country. China will firmly defend the legitimate rights and interests of developing countries.
