The so-called resolution on China\’s use of a high-altitude balloon over United States territory hyped up the \”China threat,\” which is nothing more than malicious hype-up and political manipulation, the NPC Foreign Affairs Committee said in a statement.
The NPC strongly condemned and firmly opposed it, the statement said.
