Recently, some anti-China forces violently assaulted Ambassador Liu Xiaoming's Twitter account and used contemptible tactics to mislead the public, said the United Kingdom Embassy of China in a statement on Wednesday. The Embassy reported this to the Twitter corporation and advised the latter to carry out a comprehensive investigation and to take this matter seriously. The Embassy retains the right to take further steps and to hope that the public will not believe or circulate this story.
Twitter denied to make any remarks. "Liking" a tweet does not necessarily indicate that anyone endorses it, since it is sometimes used as a bookmarking feature.
Twitter has been banned in mainland China, but in recent years , Chinese officials have begun to use the website increasingly to interact with audiences outside the region. Liu's account was set up in October. The suspected hack followed a massage leak earlier this summer, where hackers were able to enter accounts belonging to popular people like Elon Musk and Joe Biden.
Both pornography and criticism of the Chinese Communist Party was regularly prohibited by censors in China.
Shortly after the embassy had made its comment, the ambassador quoted — tweeted it. He wrote, A good anvil is not afraid of a hammer.
