TSLA•BEIJING, July 31 (Reuters) - China has consistently opposed generalising the concept of national security and discriminatory actions taken against it, its foreign ministry said on Friday in response to a report about Tesla TSLA.O looking to sell its business in the country.
The Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday that Tesla advisers have discussed possible options for a separation, including a spin off, sale or closure of the automaker's China business, which Elon Musk has dismissed as "fake news".
