Q

"The Office of the Foreign Ministry spokesman's office" news, at the regular press conference of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on August 1st, Australian and Asian reporters asked: Japanese Minister of Foreign Affairs Lin Fangzheng gave a speech on the US think tank on the 29th that he maintained a high -level frank dialogue with China. It is necessary to cooperate with China on issues such as gas change and North Korean nuclear. He also expressed so -called concerns on issues of China -Russia relations, South China Sea, East China Sea, and Taiwan Straits. what opinions do the Chinese have on this issue?

A

Zhao Lijian: The Japanese side repeatedly expressed his remarks to discredit the normal military and marine activities of China, interfered in China's internal affairs, and provoked regional division and confrontation. This approach is not constructive.

What I want to emphasize is that China adheres to the path of peaceful development and firmly pursues the nuclear strategy of self -defense defense. Sino -Russian military cooperation is in line with international law and international practice and does not target any particular country. Taiwan is an inseparable part of the Chinese territory. The Taiwan issue is purely China's internal affairs and cannot interfere with any external forces. On the other hand, the Japanese side, the Japanese side in the East China Sea's right -wing nourishment and attracting the fields of the field, and the United States showed off its strength in the South China Sea. This is the true threat of regional peace and stability. The Japanese side has long been self -proclaimed with nuclear weapons and enjoyed the "nuclear umbrella" as shelter in the United States. However, it opposes and obstructs the United States to give up the first use of nuclear military policies, and even shared it with the United States. This position is hypocritical and contradictory.

China and Japan are close neighbors and are important countries in the region. Maintaining and developing friendly and cooperative relations between China and Japan is in line with the fundamental interests of the two countries and the people. We urge the Japanese side to be able to view China's development in a rational view, abide by the various principles established by the four political documents of China and Japan, and stop creating incidents and provoking controversy in the Asia -Pacific region. The Japanese side should promote the healthy and stable development of Sino -Japanese relations along the correct track of Sino -Japanese relations.
