China's TikTok ban will backfire on the US, says Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin. Washington, "despite never having found evidence that TikTok threatens American national security, has never stopped repressing TikTok" The moves against the popular app are part of "bullying behaviour", Wang added, in the daily briefing.
The ban in the US on the Chinese-owned video-sharing app TikTok would "inevitably backfired on the United States", he said.
