China's Internet is open and the government welcomes international companies, the Foreign Ministry said yesterday, a day after Google said it may pull out of the country.
"China has tried creating a favorable environment for the Internet ... China, like other countries, administers the Internet according to law," spokesperson Jiang Yu said at a regular briefing.
"Relevant measures taken by the Chinese government are consistent with international conventions."
