据新华社电 外交部发言人姜瑜15日就美国有线电视新闻网(CNN)节目主持人卡弗蒂发表攻击中国的言论答记者问时表示，中方对此表示震惊和强烈谴责。
Cafferty said in a TV show on April 9 that the Chinese products are "junk" and the Chinese people "basically the same bunch of goons and thugs they've been for the last 50 years".
有记者问：近日，美国有线电视新闻网(CNN)在转播北京奥运火炬在旧金山传递时，主持人卡弗蒂发表攻击中国的言论，妄称“中国产品是垃圾”，“在过去50年里中国人基本上一直是一帮暴民和匪徒”，中方对此有何评论？
"Cafferty used the microphone in his hands to slander China and the Chinese people, seriously violated professional ethics of journalism and human conscience", said Jiang. What he did "reflected his arrogance, ignorance and hostility towards the Chinese people, ignited indignation of Chinese home and abroad, and will be condemned by those who safeguard justice around the world", said Jiang. "We strongly demand CNN and Cafferty himself take back the vile remarks and apologize to all Chinese people," Jiang said.
