The situation of Korean Peninsula is highly complex and sensitive, and the development of the situation has fully proved that military threats, sanctions and pressure will only intensify conflicts and heighten tensions. All parties should have the general interest in mind, keep calm and exercise restraint, avoid the deterioration and escalation of the situation, and ensure that the peninsula issue is not derailed from the track of political settlement. The US shall truly shoulder its part of the responsibilities and demonstrate its sincerity through concrete actions.

As a close neighbour of the Peninsula and an important stakeholder in the Peninsula issue, China’s position on the Peninsula issue has always been consistent and clear. We hope that peace, stability and long-term security will be achieved on the peninsula at an early date, and we are committed to promoting the political settlement of the Korean Peninsula issue. Countries that advocate "nuclear sharing" should faithfully fulfill international nuclear non-proliferation obligations and commitments, Play a constructive role in promoting peace and stability in the region. China is willing to work with the parties concerned and the international community to jointly promote the process of political settlement of the Peninsula issue in an objective and impartial manner and in accordance with the "dual-track" approach and the principle of taking phased and synchronized actions.
