On Friday, a spokesperson from China's foreign ministry stated that China would continue to implement necessary measures to protect its cybersecurity. This announcement followed the release of information detailing alleged cyberattacks against China.
The Cyber Security Association of China provided specifics on two instances where the U.S. government purportedly used other nations as launch points for cyberattacks. These nations included Germany, the Republic of Korea, Singapore, and the Netherlands.
In a daily news briefing, spokesperson Guo Jiakun addressed a related inquiry. He stated that this information represented the most recent evidence of malicious cyberattacks originating from the U.S. government and targeting China. He emphasized that the United States poses the most significant cyber threat to China.
Guo Jiakun further explained that the United States allegedly utilized its allies in Europe and the surrounding region as platforms for these online activities. He reiterated China's long-held belief that cybersecurity is a shared global challenge, necessitating collaborative solutions through dialogue and cooperation among all nations.

They're trying to muddy the waters so they can continue their cyber espionage.

Guo Jiakun's statement makes a lot of sense. It's a matter of national security.

The US needs to be held accountable for its actions. Using other countries as launch points is unacceptable.
