國(guó)防部：堅(jiān)決反對(duì)北約拿中國(guó)當(dāng)借口“東進(jìn)亞太”
MND: The Chinese Side Firmly Opposes NATO Using China as an Excuse to “Expand Eastward into the Asia-Pacific”
6月26日下午，國(guó)防部舉行例行記者會(huì)，國(guó)防部新聞發(fā)言人張曉剛大校答記者問。
記者：據(jù)報(bào)道，6月24日至25日北約在海牙舉行峰會(huì)，指責(zé)“中國(guó)在俄烏沖突中給予俄關(guān)鍵性支持”，對(duì)南海、東海、臺(tái)海問題表達(dá)關(guān)切。北約秘書長(zhǎng)近日稱，中國(guó)正大幅增強(qiáng)軍力，打造全球最大規(guī)模海軍并擴(kuò)充核武庫，北約需筑牢印太伙伴關(guān)系，應(yīng)對(duì)中國(guó)軍事挑戰(zhàn)。請(qǐng)問發(fā)言人有何評(píng)論？
Question:According to reports, NATO held its summit in The Hague from June 24 to 25, accusing China of “providing Russia with key support during the Russia-Ukraine conflict”, and expressing concerns over the South China Sea, the East China Sea and the Taiwan question. NATO Secretary General recently stated that China is significantly strengthening its military capabilities, building the world’s largest navy, and expanding its nuclear arsenal. Therefore, NATO should strengthen its partnership with Indo-Pacific countries to deal with the military challenges posed by China. What’s your comment?
張曉剛：中國(guó)堅(jiān)持走和平發(fā)展道路，奉行防御性國(guó)防政策，發(fā)展軍力完全是為了維護(hù)國(guó)家主權(quán)、安全、發(fā)展利益。中俄之間的合作既不針對(duì)第三方，也不受第三方干擾影響。
Zhang Xiaogang:China adheres to the path of peaceful development, and is committed to a national defense policy that is defensive in nature. China’s military development is purely aimed at safeguarding national sovereignty, security and development interests. China-Russia cooperation does not target at any third party, nor will it be interfered by any third party.
北約是冷戰(zhàn)產(chǎn)物和全球最大軍事同盟，到處煽風(fēng)點(diǎn)火、挑亂生戰(zhàn)，是名副其實(shí)的“戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)機(jī)器”。近年來，北約突破自身?xiàng)l約規(guī)定的地理范疇越界擴(kuò)權(quán)，已引起地區(qū)國(guó)家高度警惕。我們堅(jiān)決反對(duì)北約拿中國(guó)當(dāng)借口“東進(jìn)亞太”，要求北約反躬自省、改弦易轍，多為世界安全穩(wěn)定做點(diǎn)好事。
As a product of the Cold War and the largest military bloc in the world, NATO stirs up troubles and provokes conflicts and wars in various regions, making itself a true war machine. In recent years, NATO has overstretched its geographic boundary stipulated by its own Treaty, and ill-expanded its power and authority, arousing high vigilance among regional countries. We firmly oppose NATO using China as an excuse to “expand eastward into the Asia-Pacific” and urge NATO to reflect on its own behaviors, change course, and contribute more to global security and stability.
