China has hit back at the United States shortly after it had announced a diplomatic boycott of the next Winter Olympics, claiming that American leaders were never invited to the games in the first place and calling the decision blatant “political manipulation.” When asked about the boycott revealed by the Biden govt on Monday, Liu Pengyu, a spokesperson for the Chinese Embassy in the United States, said to Reuters that the move went against the “spirit” of the Olympics, but that it would have no detrimental impact on the games, which are scheduled to take place in China in February. “Such an absurd move is nothing more than a political ruse and a flagrant violation of the Olympic Charter’s spirit. In reality, it makes no difference whether these individuals arrive or not, and it has no bearing on the success of the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics,” he explained.
