China hopes bilateral arrangements not harmful for other countries

Xinhua, November 18, 2016 Adjust font size:

China hopes that bilateral arrangements between any countries do not harm the interests of other countries, a Foreign Ministry spokesman said Friday.

Geng Shuang made the remarks at a daily press briefing when asked to comment on the meeting between U.S. President-elect Donald Trump and Japan's Prime Minister Shinzo Abe Thursday.

Geng said China is pleased to see the development of normal bilateral relations between any countries, but noted that such relations should respect the security concerns of countries in the region and be conducive to regional peace and stability.

He also said the 27th session of the China-U.S. Joint Commission on Commerce and Trade (JCCT), slated for November 21- 23, is being organized.

Chinese Vice Premier Wang Yang will attend the JCCT, in the United States. Endi
