[Macron opposes the opening of NATO office in Tokyo Ministry of Foreign Affairs: does not welcome NATO to extend its tentacles to Asia] Financial Associated Press, 6 June, Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin held a regular press conference on 6 June. A reporter asked, it is reported that French President Macron opposed the proposal of NATO to open an office in Tokyo, saying that NATO should continue to focus on the North Atlantic region. How do you comment on this? Wang Wenbin said: we have taken note of relevant reports. NATO has stated publicly many times that its position as a regional alliance has not changed, that it does not seek geographical breakthroughs, and that Asia is not a geographical category of the North Atlantic Ocean. There is no need to establish the so-called "Asia-Pacific version of NATO." but what does NATO intend to do when it insists on moving eastward into the Asia-Pacific region, interfering in regional affairs, and inciting camp confrontation? Wang Wenbin pointed out that the relevant trends of NATO have aroused a high degree of vigilance from the international community, especially Asian countries. As I told you yesterday, the attitude of most countries in the region on this issue is very clear, opposing the patchwork of various military blocs in the region, does not welcome NATO to extend its tentacles to Asia, does not accept the replication of camp confrontation in Asia, and does not allow any hot war of the cold war to be repeated in Asia. NATO should keep a clear head on this issue, and Japan should also make a correct judgment in line with the interests of regional stability and development, and refrain from doing things that undermine mutual trust among countries in the region and undermine regional peace and stability.
