Beijing; The Chinese government has provided emergency medical support to more than 150 countries and international organizations to help them brace Covid-19 and is actively facilitating the commercial procurement of various countries in China.

He said since the outbreak of the new coronavirus epidemic, the international community has given China sincere help and strong support, which we have in mind.

“At present, although China is under tremendous pressure of ‘internal defense rebound and external defense input’ of the novel coronavirus, it still provides support and assistance to the international community within its capacity,” he added.

Geng Shuang said the Chinese kindness and good deeds reflected the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation, the Chinese people’s love for boundless humanitarianism, and the Chinese government’s responsibility for the great powers of the world.

He pointed out that viruses were the common enemy of all mankind, and the international community could only win if it was united and coordinated.

“The purpose is to stabilize important economic and trade cooperation between China and relevant countries under the premise of effective prevention and control of the epidemic, ensure the safe and smooth operation of the international industrial and supply chain,” he added.
