China's Commerce Department spokesman Gaofeng said on the 30th that "nothing is known" regarding media reports that North Korea is planning to send an economic mission to Beijing this week.
In a press briefing today, Gao denied that the two countries maintained friendly relations but did not know about the North Korean economic mission. He added that he hoped the media would provide responsible reports based on the facts.
Earlier, @Reuters news agency quoted multiple sources on the 28th that North Korea will dispatch an economic mission to China this week to discuss food and trade issues.
Earlier, the Chinese Foreign Ministry did not give a clear statement on the report by the Reuters news agency that a senior official from the Chinese Communist Party's foreign contact led a delegation with medical staff to North Korea.
[Recording: Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Geng Cheng] "I want to say that I don't know the source of the information. I have nothing to offer in terms of the detailed question you asked."
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Geng-shen asked whether the delegation's visit to North Korea is related to the response to the new coronavirus or Kim Jong-un's health abnormalities, saying that there is no news to provide from the sources.
As such, the Chinese government has spared comments from most North Korean commentaries after Kim Jong-un's personal ideology Since the report of the US `@CNN 'broadcast on the 21st that raised Kim's ideal of health,
he has been repeatedly answering' I don't know the source 'to the related questions. This is in contrast to the US and South Koreans maintaining a 'careful position' about Kims personal ideology while conveying evaluations such as no 'special trend' through some senior officials.
This airflow is also seen in major Chinese media. The representative government media, China's 'CCTV', 'People's Daily', and 'Xinhua Newspaper', have virtually no reports on Kim Jong-un's health ideals.
According to Korean media, Chinese media outlets are only briefly sympathizing with North Korean media outlets after media from the United States, South Korea, and Japan raised questions about Kim's identity.
However, it is known that only rumors related to Kim's personal affairs are reported only in the Chinese social network service, 'Weibo'. North Korea blocked the border from late January when the new coronavirus spread in China.
China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs said today it has provided coronavirus-related diagnostic equipment to North Korea.
