China has expressed "strong opposition" to Britain's accusations against "so-called cyber attacks", deeming them "completely fabricated and malicious slander".
In a statement released overnight, the Chinese embassy in London urged "stakeholders in the UK to stop spreading false information and stop their self-organized anti-China political charade".
Yesterday London accused Beijing of being behind the cyberattack against the archives of the British Electoral Commission - conducted starting in August 2021 - and attributed to APT31, a hacker group believed to be controlled by the Chinese state.
