China’s Ministry of National Defense reiterated on Friday that Beijing is committed to promoting a steady, sound and sustainable development of military-to-military ties with the United States.
‘China always upholds the principles of mutual respect, peaceful coexistence and win-win cooperation,’ spokesperson Jiang Bin told reporters when asked about bilateral relations between the two militaries.
Jiang expressed hope that the United States would stop playing up the alleged ‘China threat,’ earnestly respect China’s core interests and major concerns, and work with China ‘in the same direction to strengthen communication and dialogue, properly manage differences and enhance mutual understanding and mutual trust so as to jointly improve and develop the relationship between the two militaries.’
