The Chinese government didn’t directly address questions about manipulation of Supermicro servers, issuing a statement that read, in part, “Supply chain safety in cyberspace is an issue of common concern, and China is also a victim.”
Essentially China ils saying "it was not me". Plausible
I Read that as "The US is also attacking our hardware supply chains". That is, the statement concerned supply chain attacks in general, not this specific one.
China is sourcing virtually nothing from US. If US is attacking the supply chain of China, it's doing it on Chinese soil. Which brings us back to my interpretation
