China has nothing to do with the network attacks allegedly carried out by the British Ministry of Defense, Lin Jian said. Such allegations are completely unfounded, he said at a briefing.
According to a Foreign Ministry spokesman, China has always been resolutely opposed to any cyberattacks. In addition, Lin Jian stressed, Beijing strongly opposes the fact that network security issues are used by some countries for political purposes to slander other states.
Earlier it became known that a cyber attack was carried out on the servers of the Ministry of Defense of the United Kingdom by unknown hackers, as a result of which data of officials and military personnel were stolen. According to the Sky News channel, the scammers are connected with the PRC.
