BEIJING (China DAILY/ANN): A Republican senator in the United States has reportedly introduced legislation to ban federal employees from using the popular social media app TikTok on their devices, accusing the company of sharing data with the Chinese government.
It is not a surprise that TikTok has become another target for the US in its witch hunt of Chinese technology leaders.
Once again, the accusation has been made with no evidence at all to back it up. It is obvious that all the accusations against TikTok about the threat it may pose to the national security of the US come from some US politicians' assumptions and guesses, based on the practices of the US.
This is a fact of life that they are unable to accept despite the Chinese leadership's reiteration on different occasions that it adheres to a peaceful development path. When the world is facing a myriad problems such as climate change, the spread of the novel coronavirus, regional military conflicts, terrorism and poverty alleviation, among others, the joint efforts of the US and China have never been so urgent and necessary for effective solutions.
