China today denied the accusations USA be the “country of origin” drugs” and called it “malicious and unfounded”, while defending its role as a “model” in the fight against drugs spreading.

Representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Mao Ning Thus, he referred to the official report sent to Congress The United States, which includes China among the countries that allegedly do not do enough to combat drug trafficking.

“This has no basis and is pure malicious slander. “China is firmly opposed and has lodged a protest with the United States,” Mao said at a news conference.

Mao Zedong stressed that the Chinese government attaches “great importance” to anti-drug work and has taken “strict measures” to control narcotic substances, recalling that China has included 456 types of drugs on its control list, making it one of the country’s most with the most regulated substances and some of the strictest drug laws in the world.

He also noted that China “actively cooperates with the international community” in anti-drug prevention, treatment, rehabilitation and education, and contributes to regional and global security and stability.

On the contrary, he criticized that the United States is a “black hole” and a “source of chaos” in the world drug problem because “it consumes 80% of the world’s opiates with only 5% of the world’s population.”

Voltage between Washington And Mexico has risen in recent months as a result of trafficking in fentanyl, an opiate causing record numbers of overdose deaths in the United States, and both governments blaming each other for not doing enough to stop its movement and consumption.
