China Minister Says US Staffer Injury 'individual Case,' Not To Be 'politicized'

Washington, (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 24th May, 2018 ) :Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi said Wednesday the US should avoid politicizing the case of a US employee who suffered brain trauma similar to the mysterious injuries experienced by US diplomats in Cuba.

"We don't want to see that this individual case would be magnified, complicated or even politicized," said Wang, in Washington for talks with US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. Early Wednesday the US embassy in Beijing issued a warning after reporting that an employee in the southern city of Guangzhou was diagnosed with mild traumatic brain injury (MTBI) apparently linked to "abnormal sounds." "China has been investigating this matter in a very responsible manner," Wang said in a press conference with Pompeo.

"We haven't found that any organization or individual has carried out such a sonic influence."
