Beijing, Feb 13.- The Chinese Foreign Ministry rejected on Wednesday the information published by the Wall Street Journal about Venezuela, describing them as "false news".
The US newspaper reported on Tuesday quoting alleged sources that Chinese diplomats had talks in Washington with the emissaries of the self-proclaimed "president in charge" of Venezuela, Juan Guaidó on the debt of 20 billion dollars to Beijing and oil projects.
"The Wall Street Journal newspaper published yesterday that material (...) that is really a false news," said the spokeswoman of the Chinese Foreign Ministry, Hua Chunying.
Hua said that this type of publication of the US press highlights its lack of professionalism and ethics, says Telesur.
The official of the Chinese Foreign Ministry added that the Western media are immersed in a race for false news.
"I do not know what objectives they are pursuing, but we hope that the media will prepare their publications in accordance with the principles of objectivity and impartiality," he stressed.
Regarding the Venezuelan political situation, Hua stressed that his country advocates dialogue between the Venezuelan government and the opposition sectors.
The "issues" of Venezuela must be resolved through dialogue, Hua added, reiterating China's previous position. (RHC)
