BEIJING (Reuters) - China opposes all forms of cyber attacks and cyber "terrorism", the country's foreign minister told U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry on Sunday.

Foreign Minister Wang Yi made the remarks in a telephone call with Kerry on Sunday night, according to a statement posted on the foreign ministry's website on Monday.

China opposes any country or person using other nations' internal facilities to conduct cyber attacks on third-party countries, Wang told Kerry.

The United States concluded on Friday that North Korea, one of China's allies, was responsible for a large-scale hacking of Sony Pictures.
