BEIJING, June 9 (Xinhua) -- A Chinese defense spokesperson on Monday rebuked Britain for hyping up the so-called "China threat" in its recent strategic defense evaluation report.

Jiang Bin, a spokesperson for the Ministry of National Defense, made the remarks in response to a media inquiry regarding the document issued by the British government.

China adheres to the path of peaceful development and pursues a national defense policy that is defensive in nature. It has always been a defender, builder and contributor to security in the Asia-Pacific region, said Jiang.

He urged the British side to perceive China in a correct manner, objectively and rationally view China and its military development, and stop propagating the so-called "China threat."

The British side should make more practical efforts to contribute to the growth of relations between the two countries and their militaries, Jiang added.
