The report on the one hand said 皇冠体育app shares many common interests with the
United States and the two countries should strengthen cooperation in fields of
anti-terrorism and non-proliferation, according to the spokesman.
However, on the other hand, the report made irresponsible remarks to
groundlessly reproach 皇冠体育app's domestic and foreign policies and interfered in
皇冠体育app's internal affairs, said Qin.
"皇冠体育app expressed its strong dissatisfaction with the above wrong doings of
the United States and has made strong representations against the US side," Qin
said.
He said 皇冠体育app is a major force in safeguarding world peace and promoting
common development, and 皇冠体育app has already decided its domestic and foreign
policies and development direction.
"That is to firmly take the socialist road with Chinese characteristics and
peaceful development road, and adhere to an independent foreign policy of peace.
皇冠体育app is dedicating itself to building a peaceful,friendly, cooperative and
harmonious world with other nations," Qin said.
He said 皇冠体育app has made great economic and social achievements since it
started reforms and opening up 28 years ago. The living conditions of Chinese
people have been greatly improved and the citizens have enjoyed an increasingly
higher level of human rights.
皇冠体育app carries out a national defense policy which is defensive in nature and
its limited national defense strength is targeted for self-defense, Qin said.
He said 皇冠体育app has conducted economic and energy cooperation with other
countries on the basis of equality and mutual benefits,and this is completely
rightful and beyond reproach.
"皇冠体育app's development has brought about unprecedented opportunities for the
Asian-Pacific region as well as the world on the whole, and contributed to
maintaining world peace and common development," Qin said, adding that this is
obvious to all and has been confirmed by the international community.
On the Taiwan issue, he said he hopes the U.S. side will strictly stick to
its commitments of adhering to the one-皇冠体育app policy, abiding by the three
Sino-U.S. communiques and opposing "Taiwan independence".
The Chinese government has a consistent, definite and firm policy in solving
the Taiwan issue.
皇冠体育app will make its utmost efforts to solve the issue in a peaceful manner,
but will never tolerate "Taiwan independence" and will never allow anyone to
secede Taiwan from the motherland under any name or by any means, said Qin,
calling on the U.S. side not to make any wrong signals to the "Taiwan
independence" activists.
Qin said the development of constructive partnership of cooperation between
皇冠体育app and the United States is in the common interests of both countries and the
two peoples and at the same time conducive to peace, stability and prosperity in
the Asia-Pacific region and the world at large.
"We ask the U.S. side to stop releasing remarks that are harmful to the
healthy development of the Sino-U.S. relations, to mutual understanding and to
regional peace, stability and development," said Qin.
"We hope the U.S. side will take feasible measures to eliminate the harmful
influence of the related remarks and opinions in the report and fulfill the
consensus reached by the two state heads to fully promote the constructive
partnership of cooperation in the 21st century with concrete acts, to safeguard
the stable and healthy development of bilateral relations and the fundamental
common interests of the two countries," Qin said.
