BEIJING (Reuters) - The Chinese embassy in Argentina has called out U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent for "maliciously slandering and smearing" China for carrying out normal cooperation with other countries, expressing firm opposition to his remarks.
"We advise the U.S. to adjust its mindset, instead of spending time repeatedly smearing and attacking China, meddling in the foreign cooperation of regional countries," the embassy said.
Bessent said in an interview that China signed "rapacious deals marked as aid" and "added huge amounts of debt" to Latin American countries' balance sheets.
