BEIJING. — China yesterday said it opposed the Pentagon’s latest military report and urged the United States to give up cold-war attitudes. “We are dissatisfied with and oppose the US report which has played up ‘the China threat’,” Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying said at a daily Press briefing.
Her comments came after release of the US military report on Wednesday, which said “China’s actions are adding tension to the Asia-Pacific region,” referring to China’s land reclamation in the South China Sea.
“China has repeatedly made clear its principle and position on the reclamation construction in the South China Sea,” Hua said, urging the United States to give up cold-war mindset and take a correct view of China’s strategic intention.
She called on the United States to work in the same direction with China to observe the important consensus reached by the two presidents and in the spirit of no confrontation, no antagonism, mutual respect and win-win cooperation, continue to make efforts to build a new type of major-country relations.
“That’s also in the interest of the United States,” she said. — Xinhua.
