Beijing [China], May 19 (ANI): China on Wednesday expressed strong dissatisfaction after US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi called for a "diplomatic boycott" of next year's Beijing Winter Olympics on human rights grounds.
Condemning her statement, China's Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian said at a routine press conference that some US individual's personal statements are "full of lies and fake information" and represent a typical American farce that is bound to fail, reported Global Times.
"Some people in the US hype themselves up as moral authority. I do not know where they got the nerve to say so," said Zhao.
