China always values the good neighbourliness and friendship with India, but it is also firm on upholding its 바카라sovereign rights바카라, interests and territorial integrity, Chinese foreign minister Wang Yi said Saturday.
Beijing handled the Doklam standoff with 바카라restraint바카라, showing the 바카라emphasis바카라 it places on ties with New Delhi, he said.
Touching on China바카라s relations with major countries and its diplomatic initiatives last year, Yi, in a lengthy article in the Chinese International Studies journal, dwelt about Sino-India ties, stating that Beijing바카라s diplomatic engagement with New Delhi resulted in India withdrawing its troops and equipment from Doklam.
The journal is published by China Institute of International Studies, a think-tank attached to the Chinese Foreign Ministry.
The 73-day standoff at Doklam over which Bhutan also has counter claims began in June last year when Indian troops objected to Chinese army building a road close to India바카라s Chicken-Neck Corridor, a narrow corridor connecting north-eastern states.
The standoff ended on August 28 after Chinese troops agreed to stop building the road following which both the sides agreed on the 바카라expeditious disengagement바카라 of personnel at Doklam, according to the External Affairs Ministry.
Yi said China always values the good neighbourliness and friendship with India as 바카라we are each other바카라s big neighbours and ancient civilisations바카라.
In the meantime, China is also firm in upholding its sovereign rights and interests and territorial integrity, he said.
바카라This demonstrates not only the value and emphasis we put on relations with India but also our sincerity and sense of responsibility in maintaining regional peace and stability,바카라 the foreign minister said.
바카라We believe as we continue to engage in in-depth strategic communication and promptly dispel strategic misgivings, the strategic value of China-India cooperation will speak for itself and there will be a prospect of 바카라the Dragon and Elephant dancing together바카라 and 1+1=11 effect as expected by the leaders,바카라 Yi said.
On Chinese diplomacy in general, he said China will continue to break new ground in pursuing major-country diplomacy with Chinese characteristics in the new era.
바카라We will take a longer and broader perspective, and be even more open-minded and resourceful in our diplomacy. We will give more consideration to the overall interests of the world and humanity, and work in a proactive manner,바카라 he said.
China will firmly uphold the existing international system with the UN at the core, and protect and expand the legitimate rights and interests of developing countries, he said.
바카라We will continue to act as a responsible major country to contribute to world peace, promote global development, and uphold the international order,바카라 Yi added.
