China's foreign ministry has angrily denounced what it called ‘unreasonable accusations’ by the U.S. and demanded an immediate halt to what it described as the country’s ‘wrong practice of abusing sanctions.’<br /><br />"As the world's largest "hacker empire", the U.S.'s related practices are hypocritical double standards and a typical case of a thief crying 'stop the thief’,” said Lin Jian, a spokesperson for China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs.<br /><br />The U.S. on Wednesday announced indictments against a slew of alleged Chinese hackers, sanctioned a Chinese tech company and offered a $10 million bounty over what Washington called a years-long spy campaign that stole information from victims across America and around the world.
