This isn't true. They aren't trying to cause a panic. Some of their rockets uses a sustainer centre core that makes it into a very low orbit. They haven't invested in the tech to relight the engines or add deorbit motors to deorbit it in a controlled fashion.

The easiest solution is what Energia and Shuttle did: don't put the big thing into orbit. People even talked about this before the first CZ-5B launch.
