CCTV: It was reported that US Ambassador to China Nicholas Burns recently said in an interview with a US media outlet that China is the US’ most significant competitor; ultimately, China wants to become and overtake the US as the dominant country globally, and the US doesn’t want that to happen; the US doesn’t want to live in a world where China is the dominant country. What is your comment? Mao Ning: The remarks by the US side are neither fact-based nor constructive. China firmly rejects these remarks. We oppose defining the China-US relations with competition. China does not engage in major-country competition, and has no intention to replace or challenge any country. We have advanced the China-US relations under the principles of mutual respect, peaceful coexistence and win-win cooperation proposed by President Xi Jinping. We hope the US will work in the same direction with China and have a right perception of China. China always believes that all countries, big or small, rich or poor, are equal members of the international community. China will not dominate the world and we do not think the world should be dominated by any country. Neither does China have the intention to overtake the US. What we do are aimed at self-improvement so as to deliver a better life for our people. China will, as always, firmly safeguard the international system with the UN at its core and the international order based on international law, uphold world peace, promote common development, build a community with a shared future for mankind and act as a force for world peace, a contributor to global development and a defender of international order. __________________ ShanghaiEye focuses on producing top-quality contents.
