BEIJING, May 21 (Xinhua) -- China firmly supports Cuba in safeguarding its sovereignty and national dignity and opposing external interference, a Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson said on Thursday.
Spokesperson Guo Jiakun made the remarks at a daily press briefing in response to a query about the U.S. recent accusation against Cuban leader Raul Castro, which the Cuban government has strongly rejected.
Guo said China always firmly opposes unilateral sanctions that have no basis in international law or authorization of the United Nations Security Council.
"We stand against abusing judicial means and exerting pressure on Cuba under any pretext by external forces," said Guo.
"The United States should stop brandishing sanctions or judicial proceedings at Cuba and stop resorting to the threat of force at every turn," he added. Enditem
