China said on Wednesday that its economic recovery "will be a bumpy and tortuous process", but insisted Western critics "will for sure be proven wrong".
"A number of Western politicians and media have hyped up the periodic problems in China's post-epidemic economic recovery process," foreign ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin said at a regular press conference. "But eventually, they will for sure be proven wrong."
