Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian said at a regular news conference at the Foreign Ministry today that some people in the United States not only stigmatize Xinjiang cotton and seriously damage the cotton planting industry in Xinjiang and even China's overall economic interests, but also try to separate the Chinese Government from the will of the people, and their intentions are so poisonous! Zhao Pointed out that the US side slandered China for "behind-the-scenes manipulation", reminding him of a speech by former US Secretary of State Powell's chief of staff and former Army Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson at the Ron Paul Institute in August 2018. This fully shows that the United States and the West have earth-shattering conspiracies on Xinjiang-related issues, and they are vainly trying to disrupt Xinjiang and thus curb China's development. Their smear of Xinjiang cotton is part of a conspiracy. Zhao Lijian: The United States and the West have earth-shattering conspiracies on Xinjiang-related issues
