Beijing will not accept lawsuits from other countries on losses from COVID-19 and such attempts to infringe on China's sovereignty and dignity are doomed to failure, State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi said on Sunday.

Wang told a news conference held on the sidelines of the third plenary session of the 13th National People's Congress that the accusations are completely baseless both in terms of laws and facts and have no international precedents.

China, like other countries, is also a victim of the pandemic, he said.

The country has paid a heavy price and made huge sacrifice in its efforts to contain the spread of the virus and cut off the path of its transmission within the shortest possible period, he added.

Such accusations are attempts to blackmail the hard-won achievements of the Chinese people, and those filing the lawsuits are indulging in daydreaming and will only invite humiliation, Wang said.
