China held a seminar on promoting multilateralism and advancing arms control diplomacy in Beijing from Tuesday to Friday, Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning said at a press briefing in Beijing on Monday.
"Foreign representatives attending the seminar visited a Chinese nuclear company and also traveled to Chongqing to visit China's decommissioned nuclear facilities," she said.
"This is an important diplomatic event of China to implement the Global Governance Initiative and the Global Security Initiative, support the role of the UN in arms control, and uphold the international arms control system. Participating parties had in-depth exchanges of views on practicing multilateralism in arms control, the review conference of the parties to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, governance on emerging science and technology, and developing countries' rights to peaceful use of science and technology. These discussions effectively enhanced mutual understanding on arms control policies, deepened strategic mutual trust, and provided new impetus for the international arms control process," said Mao.
