China says non-proliferation are important for international stability

Chinese Foreign Ministry's Spokesperson Zhao Lijian Thursday responded a report from U.S. State Department about how China may have conducted low-level nuclear tests.

"We have noticed the relevant reports from the U.S., in recent years, the U.S. has made up so-called arms control compliance reports every year and played a role as a judge and made irresponsible remarks over arms control and non-proliferation policies against other countries", he said, adding that U.S. set itself as a role model which is misrepresenting the facts.

China has always believed that relevant treaties and mechanisms in the fields of arms control and non-proliferation are important for maintaining international peace, security and stability, and should be abide by and enforced, he said.

Meanwhile, the spokesperson emphasized that China has always fulfilled its international obligations and commitments in a responsible manner, firmly committed to multilateralism, and actively carried out international cooperation. China has made important contributions to safeguarding the international arms control and non-proliferation system as well as international peace and security.
