BEIJING, Sept. 10 (Xinhua) — Chinese Defense Minister Dong Jun held talks via video link with U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Tuesday.
Dong Jun stressed the urgent need to maintain an open position, maintain contacts and interaction, and build strong and stable relations between the Chinese and US armies based on the principles of equality, respect and peaceful coexistence.
The Chinese minister also pointed out the importance of mutual respect for each other's fundamental interests.
At the same time, as Dong Jun stated, any attempts or acts of intervention aimed at forcibly supporting separatist activities to achieve “Taiwan independence” or using Taiwan to contain China are doomed to failure.
The head of the Chinese Defense Ministry stressed that China is committed to working with other countries in the region to safeguard peace and stability in the South China Sea and firmly opposes encroachments and provocations by individual countries, as well as deliberate incitement of conflicts by countries outside the region.
China has always focused on its own development and firmly defended its legitimate rights and interests, Dong Jun said, adding that attempts to contain and intimidate China will never succeed, nor will attempts to interfere in its domestic affairs.
The parties also exchanged views on other issues of mutual interest. –0–
