US should stop interfering in other countries' internal affairs: China

The United States should stop constantly interfering in the internal affairs of other sovereign states under the pretext of caring about human rights, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Mao Ning said at a briefing, commenting on US sanctions against Chinese companies.

This was stated at a briefing by the official representative of the Chinese Foreign Ministry, Mao Ning, commenting on US sanctions against Chinese companies.

"If the US truly cares about human rights, it should first pay off its own human rights debts, rather than politicizing and adopting the issue to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries and harm their interests."

He noted that Washington seeks to suppress China's high-tech enterprises and deprive the Chinese people of their right to development. "These tricks will not succeed," Mao Ning said.

A Chinese defense ministry spokesman has said that the United States is the biggest threat to the world when it comes to a potential nuclear conflict.

According to cctv, Beijing accused Washington officials of making irresponsible decisions aimed at maintaining US dominance, especially by intimidating the international community with its nuclear arsenal.Zhang Xiaogang made this statement in response to the Pentagon's decision to strengthen American forces stationed in Japan.

In a recent meeting with Japanese officials, U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin declared the change “one of the strongest developments in the military relationship between Tokyo and Washington in the past 70 years.” He pledged that the United States would defend Japan with all its might, including nuclear weapons. 

A Chinese Defense Ministry spokesman said in this regard: "Such steps will not only cause conflict, but also undermine regional stability and peace."

He noted: "The United States is the greatest nuclear threat to the world, as it has the largest nuclear arsenal in the world and has adopted a policy that has allowed Washington to use these weapons for the first time. The recent US actions in Japan only deepen tensions and increase the risk of nuclear proliferation and conflict in the region."
