Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi on Friday called for mutual respect between China and the United States, urging the U.S. side not to cross China's red lines.
Wang, also a member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, made the remarks during his talks with visiting U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken in Beijing.
Wang said that China's attitude has always been consistent. China views and develops China-U.S. relations from the world vision of building a community with a shared future for humanity.
He said China's position has always been consistent. China adheres to the principles of mutual respect, peaceful coexistence, and win-win cooperation, and commits to promoting the stable, healthy, and sustainable development of China-U.S. relations.
Wang said China's request has always been consistent. China proposes to respect each other's core interests, and urges the U.S. side not to interfere in China's internal affairs, suppress China's development, or cross China's red lines when it comes to China's sovereignty, security, and development interests.
