Statement by US and relevant countries alluding to China's missile test launch fully reveals their hypocrisy, double standards: FM_我的网站

A |     RICHMOND, Va. -- A ban on electronic skill games in Virgnia went back into effect Friday after the state Supreme Court vacated an injunction that allowed thousands of the betting machines to remain in gas stations, bars and conveniece stores.The injunction was issued by a lower court in an ongoing lawsuit that argues the ban is a violation of free speech. But a panel of three Supreme Court justices found that the suit is unlikely to succeed.“Although at times it is difficult to determine where a particular activity falls on the speech/conduct continuum, no such difficulty is present when the activity being regulated is gambling. We long have viewed gambling as conduct that may be heavily regulated and even banned by the Commonwealth as an exercise of its police powers," the panel wrote in its order.The games look and play like slot machines, though manufacturers say there is an element of skill involved.The General Assembly passed legislation outlawing skill games in 2020, but former Gov. Ralph Northam delayed it for a year to help the state raise money for COVID-19 relief efforts. The ban then took effect in 2021, but the lawsuit resulted in an injunction that allowed games already registered with the state's Alcoholic Beverage Control Authoirty to continue until the issue is resolved.The lawsuit is now set to go to trial in December.。    

    Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun The so-called joint statement by the US and relevant countries at the Conference on Disarmament, which brandished the Hague Code of Conduct Against Ballistic Missile Proliferation and alluded to China's missile test launch, was driven solely by political motives and fully reveals their hypocrisy and double standards, said Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun on Wednesday. 
He made the remarks when asked to comment on a joint statement made by the US and relevant countries at the Conference on Disarmament, alleging that recent missile testing activity in the Pacific area did not follow the "standard practices" to provide advance notice. It is believed that the joint statement is directed at China's test fire of a submarine-launched ballistic missile in July.
China urges relevant countries to stop abusing multilateral arms control mechanisms, replace irrational confrontation with sincere dialogue and create conditions necessary for enhancing dialogue and exchanges in the area of arms control, the spokesperson said.
