Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Lin Jian

In response to the White House's claims—made following the election of Lee Jae-myung as the 21st President of South Korea—about so-called Chinese interference and influence in democracies around the world while South Korea had a free and fair election, the Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian stated that "We have taken note of the relevant remarks. China has always upheld the principle of non-interference in internal affairs. We have never interfered in the internal affairs of any country, nor will we ever do so." 

The spokesperson urged the US to change its old habit of projecting its own behavior onto China, and stop sowing discord between China and South Korea.
