MFA spox on reports of discrimination against Africans in Guangdong:

I'd like to stress that we treat all foreign nationals equally in China. We reject differential treatment, and we have zero tolerance for discrimination.

The world are taking measures to contain the pandemic.

In China, our most urgent task is to prevent the spread of the coronavirus from both within and without of the country. To meet this goal, we need understanding, support & cooperation from both Chinese and foreign nationals

We pay high attention to the incidents and misunderstanding occurred in this process. We urge relevant authorities to improve their work, hope all foreigners in China will strictly observe local anti-epidemic regulations,cooperate with and support us in fighting the virus.
