An article carried in Shamis, a principal newspaper in Libya, has strongly condemned the US for its spy plane intruding into China's territorial airspace, hitting a Chinese fighter and leaving a Chinese pilot missing.
The article pointed out that China is entirely justified in demanding that the US bear full responsibility for the mid-air collision incident and stop spy activities against China. But the US attempted by hook or crook to deny the fact and refused to apologize to the Chinese people.
It emphasized that the US could confuse right and wrong, but it may not force people all over the world to accept its sophistry.
