Chinese diplomatic authorities insisted that it was a legitimate action against the BBC for violating reporting ethics in China to stop receiving BBC broadcasts.
The Chinese Embassy in the Republic of Korea announced its position in the form of a press question and answer through its website.
A spokesman for the Chinese embassy in the United Kingdom was asked for comment on the British authorities accusing China of halting the transmission of the BBC. “The BBC has violated China’s reporting regulations.” “The press has turned away from demands for truth and fairness to be observed.” And criticized it.
A spokesman said, “The BBC has undermined the national interests of China and the unity of the Chinese people.”
“The BBC’s China-related reports have created’the lies of the century’,” he criticized.
“The world has the necessary supervisory and control over the media,” he said. “The Chinese government’s sanctions against the BBC are legal and reasonable.”
Earlier, the BBC reported testimony of torture and organized sexual assault in a camp in the Xinjiang Uighur Autonomous Region in China.
It also reported that doctors in Wuhan suspected the high contagion of Corona 19, but failed to warn of it by pressure from the Chinese authorities.
In particular, when the UK broadcasting and telecommunications regulator canceled the broadcasting license on the 4th, saying that China International Television (CGTN) is operating under the control of the Chinese Communist Party, the Chinese government banned BBC World News from airing in China at 0:00 on the 12th. .
