Anger at US Nobel prize win resolution
CHINA yesterday expressed its opposition to a US congressional resolution on convicted Chinese criminal Liu Xiaobo, winner of this year's Nobel Peace Prize, and urged US lawmakers to change their "arrogant and rude" attitude.
"The so-called resolution disregards facts and distorts truth," said Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu.
The US House of Representatives approved the resolution on Wednesday that congratulated Liu for winning the Nobel Peace Prize and called on China to release him.
Liu was jailed for 11 years in 2009 for violating Chinese law and engaging in activities aimed at overthrowing the government.
At least 19 states boycotted today's award ceremony.
