“About the Japanese Prime Minister’s plan to attend the NATO summit, we have noticed relevant reports and are concerned about it.” Mao Ning pointed out that China has always believed that the development of relations between countries should be conducive to world peace and stability, and should not target third parties or harm third party interests. The Asia-Pacific region is not within the geographical scope of the North Atlantic Ocean, and NATO’s eastward expansion into the Asia-Pacific region is bound to undermine regional peace and stability. Countries and people in the region are highly vigilant against this and resolutely oppose any words or deeds that introduce military blocs and provoke division and confrontation.
Mao Ning said that Japan should learn the lessons of history, stick to the path of peaceful development, and refrain from doing things that undermine mutual trust among countries in the region and undermine regional peace and stability.
