RIA Novosti: A Pentagon official said earlier that the administration of US President Joe Biden in the defense budget for the year 2025 for the first time requested the authority to provide weapons from American warehouses to aid Taiwan. What’s China’s comment on this?
Wang Wenbin: We have noted relevant reports. We’ve made clear time and again that competition is not the defining feature of China-US relations and that competition between major countries cannot solve the problems facing China and the US. By claiming to “outcompete” others, what the US refers to is not healthy competition of becoming one’s better self and making progress together but vicious competition of trying to trip the other and recklessly gamble at the cost of the fundamental interests of the two peoples and even the future of humanity. It will only push the two countries toward confrontation and conflict.
As Member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and Foreign Minister Wang Yi pointed out last week, if the US is obsessed with suppressing China, it will eventually harm itself. We urge the US to correct its wrong perception of China, discard the mentality of zero-sum game, and give up the illusion of “outcompeting China.” Instead, the US needs to work with China in the same direction, gradually translate the San Francisco vision into reality and promote the sound, steady and sustainable development of China-US relations.
I would like to stress that China is firmly opposed to US’s military ties with Taiwan and its effort of arming Taiwan. We urge the US to abide by the one-China principle and stop interfering in China’s internal affairs. China will take steps to firmly uphold its sovereignty and territorial integrity.
