Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Jiang Yu's Remarks on Greek Athletes' Doping Incident Concerning Chinese Drugs
2008-04-11 00:00

Q: It's reported by the Greek media that Greek weigh-lifters tested positive for drugs in a sudden check by International Weightlifting Federation. It is likely to be caused by taking medicines provided by Shanghai Auspure Biotechnology Co. Ltd. How do you comment on that?

A: The Chinese Government is against the use of drugs and adopts strict and responsible management on doping. China takes the incident very seriously. As the preliminary investigation unveils, the press reports are not compatible with the fact. Relevant Chinese authorities are commissioned to launch an immediate and in-depth investigation. China will work closely with Greece in finding out the truth.
