Malaysian PM’s words of dealing with US-China ties reflect vast developing countries’ aspiration

China Review News: It’s reported that Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim in an interview with the UK-based Financial Times decried “China-phobia” among Western countries and emphasized that Malaysia upholds neutrality and independence and would not “pick a quarrel” with China for the US. What’s China’s comment? Mao Ning: We noted the reports. Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim’s statement reflects the vast developing countries’ aspiration for upholding independence and seeking development. China’s development provides opportunities for the world and does not pose threat to anyone. China is committed to an independent foreign policy of peace, and opposes bloc confrontation and picking sides. We will continue to pursue friendship and cooperation with all other countries based on the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence, call for an equal and orderly multipolar world and a universally beneficial and inclusive economic globalization, and advance the building of a community with a shared future for mankind. __________________ ShanghaiEye focuses on producing top-quality contents.
