China MoFA LIVE | Beijing Urges Countries Not to Provoke Bloc Confrontation in Asia-Pacific
Chinese foreign ministry held its daily news conference on Monday. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian said that China urges certain countries not to provoke bloc confrontations or stoke a new Cold War in the Asia-Pacific region. This comes as the Philippines and Japan signed the Reciprocal Access Agreement (RAA), which is a defence pact that allows both countries to deploy troops on each other's territory. Lin slammed the two countries' signing of this bilateral agreement at a press conference held in Beijing.
"Bilateral exchanges and cooperation should not undermine mutual understanding and trust among countries in the region, should not undermine peace and stability in the region, and should not target any third party or undermine their interests. The Asia-Pacific region does not need military blocs, still less groupings that could provoke block confrontation or stoke a new Cold War. Any act that undermines peace and stability or hurts solidarity and cooperation in the region will arouse the vigilance and opposition among people in the region," said Lin.
