Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokesperson’s Criticism - NATO is Spreading its Tentacles to Asia-Pacific
Date: 23/05/2023 | Source: Ministry of Foreign Affairs (EN) | Read original version at source
The spokesperson for Chinese Foreign Ministry, at the recent regular press conference, made reference to NATO’s repeated statements that it does not seek geographical conflict by opening its liaison office in Japan, and continued as follows:
The Asia-Pacific region does not fall into the geographical category of North Atlantic, nor does it require an Asia-Pacific version of “NATO”.
NATO, however, is spreading its tentacles to the Asia-Pacific region, strengthening ties with the countries in the region, interfering in the regional affairs and instigating confrontation between the camps, with highly dubious purposes.
Such moves have already called for high vigilance of the international community and that of the countries in the Asia-Pacific region in particular.
I hope that every responsible party would not undermine peace and stability of the region in pursuance of the so-called geopolitical interests.
The spokesperson concluded by strongly demanding that Japan, with honesty, learn lessons from the history, keep following the track of peaceful development and refrain from disrupting trust between countries and from undermining peace and stability of the region.
