This was stated at a briefing by Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian.

China has always acted honestly and transparently and has never engaged in deception or interference, the diplomat said, commenting on The Daily Telegraph's article about the espionage activities of Prince Andrew, the younger brother of Charles III.

According to the publication, the prince could receive money from people associated with the Communist Party of China (CPC). The businessman was allegedly a member of the CPC and worked for the Patriotic United Front of the Chinese People. According to Lin Jian, such baseless speculation does not even deserve to be refuted.

As The Times newspaper previously wrote, in 2023, the British Interior Ministry banned entry to the kingdom for a Chinese citizen who advised Prince Andrew on the topic of investments and conducted common business projects with him. The prince himself said that he had cut off all contacts with him on the recommendation of the government.
