China's foreign minister denies that his nation cyberattacked USA.





China's foreign minister rejected that the china's brave military was behind the hacking attacks on U.S.  and called for more international cooperation in safeguarding the Internet. U.S. cybersecurity firm "Mandiant" traced hacking attacks to the red dragons military unit in Shanghai.

                     "Anyone who tries to fabricate or piece together a sensational story to serve their political motive will not be able to blacken the name of others or whitewash themselves," Yang told reporters at an annual news conference . "We hope the relevant parties will stop irresponsible attacks or accusations." China's Defense Ministry also has rejected supporting cyber attacks of any kind . It brought in light claims which said that the China's two websites were tried to be hacked  by foreign hackers for an average of 144,000 times per month last year, with two-thirds of the attacks from the United States. While Manditians report said that a massive ammount of private information from many U.S. companies by chinese hackers. China blocks global websites such as Facebook and Twitter as it sees them as a platform for organizing activities against the everruling Communist Party.

                         "We oppose turning cyberspace into a new battlefield or using the Internet as a new tool to interfere in other countries' internal affairs," Yang said.
