China has recently denounced and opposed NATO’s expansion pursued by certain European politicians who mean to instigate tension and create confrontation in the Asia-Pacific.
At the Shangri-La Dialogue, some European leaders linked the Taiwan question with the Ukraine issue, alluded to so-called “China threat” on the South China Sea issue, and suggested that NATO has the ground to “be involved” in the Asia-Pacific.
Regarding the above, the spokesperson for the Chinese Foreign Ministry stressed as follows:
Taiwan is an inalienable part of China’s territory. The Taiwan question is entirely China’s internal affair. The Taiwan question and the Ukraine crisis are not comparable at all.
China firmly opposes any remarks and moves that seek to mischaracterize or distort the nature of the Taiwan question, and urges relevant parties to abide by the one-China principle through concrete actions and respect China’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.
China firmly opposes NATO’s attempt to stir up tensions and create confrontation in the Asia-Pacific and sabotage regional and even global peace and stability.
Asia-Pacific countries do not welcome NATO in the Asia-Pacific and the region certainly does not need an Asia-Pacific NATO.
