Beijing, Sep 6 (ANI): China will never allow any external forces to interfere in its internal affairs, and continue to follow the social system and path of development chosen by its citizens.
"China promotes friendly and cooperative relations with all the other countries on the basis of the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence," a White Paper released has said.
Titled "China's Peaceful Development", the Paper said the country neither forms alliances with any other country or group of countries, nor does it use social systems as a yardstick to determine international relations.
"China respects the right of the people of other countries to independently choose their own social system and path of development, and does not interfere in other countries' internal affairs," and opposes "the big bullying the small and the strong oppressing the weak," the Paper asserted.
It prescribed holding talks and consultations and by seeking common ground while putting aside differences as a means for settling disputes and conflicts, Xinhua reports.
The White Paper underlined that China is committed to upholding its core interests - state sovereignty, national security, territorial integrity and national reunification, China's political system established by the Constitution and overall social stability, and the basic safeguards for ensuring sustainable economic and social development.
While developing itself, China fully accommodates other countries' legitimate concerns and interests and "never makes gains at others' expense or shifts its own troubles onto others," it said. (ANI)
