Q: Australia and the United States announced that they would revive the military base in Manus Island which is actually territory of Papua New Guinea. Australia and the US have to get permission from Papua New Guinea to do this. Since China is such a good friend of Papua New Guinea, especially after APEC, will China do its best to persuade Papua New Guinea that a new military base in Papua New Guinea built by Australia and the United States is not a good idea?

A: We don't have that dark side as you suspected.

China adopts an open attitude to regional countries developing normal relations and cooperation. We hope that relevant exchanges and cooperation will accord with the aspiration of regional countries for common security and common development and contribute to preserving and promoting regional peace, stability, development and prosperity.
