Baerbock said on Monday that he was against violations of international law and pointed directly at China, “especially these days.” Now, the Chinese diplomatic mission in Berlin has called these statements “innuendo” and sees in them a “deliberate distortion of the facts.”

At this point, the Embassy has criticized the fact of comparing the conflict in Ukraine with the tensions in Taiwan, something that constitutes a “deliberate distortion of the facts and an interference in the internal affairs of China”.
