The Chinese Embassy also says that Australia's foreign affairs and trade secretary had called their ambassador to complain about the social media post, but that the ambassador had quote refuted the unwarranted accusations as absolutely unacceptable and that Australia was seeking to stoke domestic nationalism and deflect public attention from the horrible atrocities by certain Australian soldiers.
中國大使館還表示,澳洲外交和貿易祕書曾致電他們的大使,投訴該社交媒體的帖子,但大使引用了這一無端指責,認為這是絕對不能接受的,澳洲是在試圖煽動國內民族主義,轉移公眾對某些澳洲阿兵哥可怕暴行的關注。
