China: The defense commitment of the United States to the Philippines shall not harm China's territorial sovereignty and maritime rights in the South China Sea

A reporter asked: US Secretary of Defense Austin had a conversation with Philippine Secretary of Defense Gilberto Theodoro. After the call, Austin stated that China's actions in the South China Sea were "coercive" and "dangerous". Austin also reiterated the United States' commitment to defending the Philippines in her speech. What is the response of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to this?

Wang Wenbin: I would like to reiterate that it is indisputable for the Chinese maritime police to carry out legitimate and lawful law enforcement activities in the waters under Chinese jurisdiction. The defense commitment of the United States to the Philippines shall not harm China's territorial sovereignty and maritime rights in the South China Sea.

The UK, France, and Germany have issued a joint statement accusing Iran of violating the Iran Nuclear Comprehensive Agreement, and China has responded

A reporter asked: On July 6th, the United Nations Security Council held an open meeting on the Iran nuclear issue. After the meeting, the UK, France, and Germany issued a joint statement accusing Iran of continuously escalating its nuclear activities in violation of the Iran Nuclear Comprehensive Agreement, and Iran's development of ballistic missiles and transfer of drones to Russia in violation of Security Council Resolution 2231. They are seriously concerned that Resolution 2231 will lift missile restrictions on Iran in October this year. May I ask if the Chinese side has any comments on this?

Wang Wenbin: The Chinese side has taken note of the joint statement issued by the United Kingdom, France, and Germany. What I want to emphasize is that the relevant provisions of UN Security Council Resolution 2231 should be accurately interpreted and fully implemented, which is related to the authority and effectiveness of the Security Council resolution.

The core of Security Council Resolution 2231 is to implement the comprehensive agreement on the Iranian nuclear issue. The crux of the current Iran nuclear situation lies in the United States unilaterally withdrawing from the comprehensive agreement and exerting extreme pressure on Iran, with corresponding countermeasures taken by the Iranian side. The urgent task is for all parties involved to restore the complete and effective implementation of the comprehensive agreement through dialogue and negotiation, and to avoid any measures that escalate the situation or intensify conflicts, in order to create conditions for diplomatic efforts.

China will continue to maintain communication and coordination with relevant parties, promote the early return of the comprehensive agreement to the right track, uphold the authority and effectiveness of Security Council Resolution 2231, and advance the political and diplomatic resolution of the Iran nuclear issue.

On the evening of June 1st, the US Senate passed a bill on the federal government's debt ceiling and budget, and the flame of the US debt bomb was temporarily extinguished at the last moment. The two parties in the United States have staged an extreme tug of war over the US debt bomb. Some experts believe that the US debt crisis is the result of the reckless politics promoted by the US dollar hegemony, and the underlying cause of this crisis is the highly polarized political system of the US. Since the end of World War II, the US Congress has adjusted the debt ceiling more than a hundred times. The recurring debt crisis will not only have a catastrophic impact on the US economy and people's livelihoods, but also continuously erode the value of US dollar assets such as government credit and US bonds, bringing significant and far-reaching impacts to the global economic landscape. 【
