The hawkish Qin Gang, a close confidante of President Xi Jinping, vowed to bring US-China ties 'back on track'.

Relations between China and the United States have deteriorated rapidly in recent years

He gained prominence during two previous stints as foreign ministry spokesman, issuing barbed responses to foreign reporters and pioneering an aggressive style of defending China in the press and on social media dubbed "Wolf Warrior" diplomacy. Qin tweeted from a new official account that he will begin a 14-day quarantine in residence and "get down to work soon".

Qin, who accompanied Xi on numerous overseas trips as the foreign ministry's protocol chief, is among the diplomats who have vigorously defended China in the face of increasing criticism on the world stage.
