July 3 — Foreign Ministry spokesman Guo Jiakun said at a regular briefing that
the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's 2026 report on
international fisheries management and its 'determination' under US domestic law
lack factual and international legal basis and are intended to maliciously
suppress China's distant‑water fishing. China expressed strong dissatisfaction
and firm opposition and said the US should self-examine rather than smear China.
