China will uphold its long-standing policy, settling its disputes with foreign countries through dialogue and negotiations, without resorting to the use of force or the threat of force.
This was stated by State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi while replying to question of a media’s representative after his meeting with Swiss Federal Councillor and Foreign Minister Ignazio Cassis in Berne.
According to China Economic Net, when asked as how China will respond to all kinds of unprovoked accusations against China by some US politicians over a period of time, he said China is a responsible power, and we are upright and open on the international stage, safeguarding peace and promoting development.
China is a big developing country, and the purpose of development is to let the Chinese people live a better life. Apart from that, there are no other thoughts or attempts.
Wang Yi said that China has never exhausted all resources to build up military power, has never taken the initiative to wage war abroad, and has never occupied an inch of foreign territory.
