[Ministry of Foreign Affairs responds to the Indo-Pacific Economic Framework meeting: regional Cooperation is not Discrimination or exclusion] Financial Associated Press, May 29, Foreign Ministry spokesman Mao Ning held a regular press conference on the 29th. A reporter asked: on the 27th, the ministerial meeting of the Indo-Pacific Economic Framework (IPEF) was held in the United States, and the negotiations on the international supply chain agreement were basically concluded. What is China's comment? Mao Ning said that with regard to the "Indo-Pacific economic framework", we also stated China's position on this issue last week. We have always believed that the economic success of the Asia-Pacific region is due to openness and cooperation, mutual benefit and win-win results. No matter what the name of regional cooperation is, we should adhere to openness and inclusiveness, not discrimination or exclusion. Mao Ning said: we are also concerned about the discussion on the resilience of the supply chain in the Indo-Pacific Economic Framework. We believe that the formation and development of the global production and supply chain is the result of market laws and enterprise choices, and that human interference with market behavior, politicization of normal economic and trade activities, and artificial obstacles to industrial cooperation such as semiconductors is the biggest risk affecting the stability of the supply chain.
