BEIJING (Reuters) – China’s foreign ministry said on Thursday that concerns over the safety of Lithuanian diplomats in China were groundless, a day after the country’s diplomatic delegation and their dependents left China in a hastily arranged departure.
Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin told a regular briefing on Thursday that Lithuania had not raised security concerns with China.
