Venezuela crisis

China will continue to promote the search of a political settlement to the Venezuela issue and support all parties in Venezuela to carry out peaceful dialogue.

External interference will only escalate tensions and bring back the law of jungle.

The internal affairs of any country should be solved by its own people.

Wang noted that the rights of Latin America countries to develop their relationship with China should be respected and not be interfered with or criticized.

China will be stronger, not assertive

China will protect its lawful and legitimate interests, and will not allow any infringement of its sovereignty and dignity.

Wang was responding to a question from the Bloomberg on "accusations" over some of China's comments over Canada and Sweden.

"China's preference and goal is always to interact with other civilizations on the basis of mutual respect and to live peacefully with all countries, and to pursue win-win results with the rest of the world".

China will surely become stronger, but will not be assertive. China values its independence, but will not go forward alone. China will stand up for its rights, but will not seek hegemony.

No matter how far China develops, China will reach a fair judgment based on the merits of each matter, and act within the bonds of international law.

Ties with Pyongyang

Beijing stands ready to carry forward the traditional relationship with Pyongyang in the new era and jointly safeguard the fundamental interests of the two peoples as well as the peace and stability of the Korean Peninsula.

Developing long-term traditional relationship with the Democratic People's Republic of Korea is China's firm choice and also conforms to the interests of both countries.

China-India relations

China and India should be partners in pursuing their respective dreams and important opportunities for growing each other's economies.

The current priority is to see that the strategic understanding of the two countries' leaders trickles down to the people and becomes the common view.
