Chinese government lauds campaign for Peng Shuai's safety 'maliciously hyping'
WTATuesday, 23 November 2021 at 21:30
Peng Shuai's disappearance has made the news in the western world but China has not responded to the situation refusing to even acknowledge it so far.
But in the most direct response to the situation yet, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian told reporters that it has been 'maliciously hyped' and that this is being done deliberately.
The reason being given by the spokesperson is her being seen in public and on a video call which so far has done nothing to alleviate fears.
“I believe everyone will have seen she (Peng Shuai) has recently attended some public activities and also held a video call with the IOC (International Olympic Committee) president, [Thomas] Bach," he said.
“I think some people should stop deliberately and maliciously hyping [the issue] up, let alone politicise this issue.”

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION! They are not ambassadors for women in Saudi Arabia, they are not politicians, and they will never make a difference for females in that 'culture'. This little tennis "tournament" changes nothing. Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
