BEIJING, Dec 25 (Reuters) – China firmly opposes the U.S. Pentagon distorting its national defence policy, the foreign ministry said, referring to a mention of the development of China’s ties with India in a report on the country.
China views its ties with India from a strategic and long-term perspective, foreign ministry spokesperson Lin Jian said at a regular press briefing on Thursday.
Lin was responding to a question on whether China may attempt to exploit the easing of tensions with India over disputed border areas to prevent the United States and India from deepening their ties.
