China claps back at AG Barr, accuses him of bullying and slander
Washington Times ^ | 7/17/20 | Jeff Mordock

The Chinese government Friday clapped back at Attorney General William Barr, saying his speech warning against the country’s threat to American business was bullying and slander.

Hua Chunying, a spokeswoman for China, said the country’s primary concern is improving citizen’s lives and keeping global stability and peace, not dominating American business.

“As an independent sovereign state, China has the right to safeguard its own sovereignty, security and development interests, to defend the achievements made by the Chinese people with hard work, to refuse any bullying and injustice against China, and to fight back against malicious slander and attacks by the U.S. against China,” Ms. Hua said at a daily briefing.

Mr. Barr called out China the day before, accusing the country of using “a wide array of predatory and often unlawful tactics,” including currency manipulation, cyberattacks, intellectual property theft and espionage.

Ms. Hua described the attorney general’s actions as “absurd” saying their research and development in the healthcare industry makes stealing U.S. data unnecessary.

Currency manipulation, cyberattacks, intellectual property theft and espionage are what’s known as “hard work” in China.

"claps back"?

Rather an unusual phrase there, uncommon even.
Like a poor translation of a story written in a foreign language.
They do still write their own copy at the Times, right?

The chi-coms are nervous about the new US policy of overwhelming force in the south china sea.

A few of the illegal chinese occupied atolls should suffer the same mysterious explosions the iranians are experiencing.

By the looks of the news from inside Red China, it aint gonna be long and we wont have to fret about them any longer. UNLESS, they commit forces to start a war, which is a large possibility now.

"Claps back" is a recent headline item. Journos are cattle- they all use the same style guide so "claps back" is clearly recommended by journo-bosses.

It's unpleasant sounding and inaccurate as no one "clapped" to begin with.

Don't use it if you want to speak clearly.
