Beijing, March 26 (Xinhua) — China's Foreign Ministry warned Thursday that the United States and its allies should not bring bloc confrontation, conflict, or military turmoil to the Asia-Pacific region. Earlier, the Pentagon reported that American companies are currently exploring opportunities to establish an ammunition production line in the Philippines.
“China consistently holds that interstate military and security cooperation should not be directed against a third party or harm its interests, nor should it undermine regional peace and stability,” Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian said at a regular press briefing.
He noted that the Asia-Pacific region is a vital driving force and stabilizing factor for global development and prosperity. The United States and its allies should genuinely respect the shared aspirations of the region's countries and do more to promote peace and stability, rather than bring bloc confrontation, conflict, and military turmoil to the region, Lin Jian emphasized.
According to him, if the countries concerned agree to become a "powder keg" or "artillery depot," it will ultimately backfire on them. China will resolutely defend its territorial sovereignty, security interests, and other legitimate rights and interests, the Chinese diplomat added.
