Yesterday, the Ministry of National Defense held a regular press conference, and Colonel Wu Qian, Director of the News Bureau and spokesperson of the Ministry of National Defense, answered questions from reporters. A reporter asked: According to reports, US President Trump has carried out an "unprecedented purge" of senior US military officials, including the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. May I ask if the Chinese side is concerned that changes in the senior leadership of the US military may affect the military relations between China and the United States? Has there been any communication between the Chinese and American militaries since the new US government took office? What are China's expectations for the next stage of Sino US military relations? Wu Qian emphasized that China never interferes in the internal affairs of other countries. Regarding the military relations between China and the United States, both sides maintain effective communication through military diplomatic channels. In the next stage of military to military exchanges, both sides have made some preliminary plans and arrangements, and we will release information in a timely manner. Wu Qian said that taking history as a mirror, the future is promising. The Chinese side hopes that the US and China will move in the same direction, guided by the consensus of the two heads of state, and in accordance with the principles of mutual respect, peaceful coexistence, and win-win cooperation, strengthen communication and dialogue, properly handle contradictions and differences, carry out pragmatic cooperation, promote a good start in military relations, and continuously move forward.
