Attempts to pressure or coerce China will not succeed: Chinese Vice FM on China-US relations

Chinese Vice Foreign Minister Ma Zhaoxu said on Friday that China is willing to pursue mutual respect, peaceful coexistence, and win-win cooperation with the US, while firmly safeguarding its national sovereignty, security, and development interests.

He made the remarks in response to a question on how China views the current state of the China-US relations after the solidarity and cooperation among major countries played an irreplaceable role in winning the World Anti-Fascist War, shaping the post-war international order, and safeguarding world peace and stability during a press conference on Friday on preparations for the V-Day commemorations.

Ma stressed that attempts to pressure or coerce China will not succeed, and efforts to contain China's development or obstruct the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation are doomed to fail.

"We stand ready to work with the US in the same direction, to implement the important consensus reached by the two heads of state, maintain communication, manage differences, expand cooperation, and continue to explore the right path for two major countries to coexist in the new era," Ma said.
