“If the U.S. wishes to resolve issues through negotiation, it must face up to the severe negative impacts of its unilateral tariff measures on itself and the world, acknowledge international economic and trade rules, fairness and justice, and the rational voices of all sectors, demonstrate sincerity in negotiations, correct its wrongdoings, and work with China to resolve mutual concerns through equal consultation.
If the U.S. says one thing but does another, or even attempts to use negotiations as a pretext to continue coercive and blackmailing tactics, China will never agree, nor will it sacrifice its principles or international fairness and justice to seek any agreement.China has noted that some economies are also negotiating with the U.S. It is important to stress that appeasement cannot bring peace, and compromise cannot earn respect. Upholding principles and fairness and justice is the correct way to safeguard one’s own interests. No matter how the international situation changes, China will unswervingly expand opening-up, uphold the multilateral trading system with the WTO at its core, and share development opportunities with countries around the world.
China is willing to work with all parties to deepen mutually beneficial cooperation, strengthen communication and coordination, jointly resist unilateral protectionism and hegemonic bullying, safeguard free trade and multilateralism, and promote the building of an inclusive economic globalization.…”
