(Beijing): Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Mao Ning said the extradition of Chinese national Li Xiong, an associate of Chen Zhi, from Cambodia to China reflects coordinated law enforcement cooperation efforts between the two countries to combat online gambling and telecom fraud.

Speaking at a press conference on 1 April 2026, Mao Ning underlined that combating online gambling and telecom fraud is a common responsibility of the international community.

“For some time, China has actively cooperated with Cambodia and other countries in combating crimes of cross-border telecom and online fraud. These efforts have achieved remarkable results,” she said.

Mao Ning added that China will continue to work with neighbouring countries, including Cambodia, to step up law enforcement cooperation to protect the safety of the people and their property, and uphold the order of exchanges and cooperation between regional countries.
