Wang Yi, State Councilor and Minister for Foreign Affairs of China,addresses the general debate of the 74th Session of the General Assembly of the UN (New York, 24 – 30 September 2019).

Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi said today, “tariffs and provocation of trade disputes which upset global industrial and supply chains, serve to undermine the multilateral trading regime and global economic and trade order.”

Addressing the General Assembly today (27 Sep) in New York, Foreign Minister of China Wang Yi said, “regarding economic and trade frictions and differences, China is committed to resolve them in a calm, rational and cooperative manner, and is willing to demonstrate utmost patience and goodwill.”

However, the Foreign Minister also reiterated, “should the other side act in bad faith, or show no respect for equal status or rules in negotiations, we will have to make necessary responses to safeguard our legitimate rights and interests, and to uphold international justice.”

Wang also noted that the international order needs to go by laws and rules, and acts in violation of international norms can only plunge the world into chaos.

He said, “opportunities arising from the new round of scientific and technological revolution are opportunities of the world. Advances thus made should not be monopolized by any single country, and no one should obstruct the efforts of other countries to make innovations.”

The Chinese Foreign Minister continued, “it is not legitimate or justifiable for any country standing from a position of power to impose unilateral sanctions or exercise long-arm jurisdiction over other countries, as such practice has no basis in international law.”

He added, “to put one's own interests above the common interests of all other countries is a typical bullying practice that finds no support of the people.”

Reiterating that the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty is important in “upholding global strategic balance and stability,” Wang said, “unilateral withdrawal from it will cause multiple negative impact.”

He continued, “China is opposed to the deployment of land-based intermediate - range missiles in the Asia Pacific. We urge the country with the largest nuclear arsenal to fully fulfill its special and primary responsibilities in nuclear disarmament.”

Reaffirming China will continue to take an active part in the international arms control process, the Foreign Minister announced that China has initiated the domestic legal procedures to join the Arms Trade Treaty.

On Iran, Wang said, “all parties need to work together to uphold the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) and ensure that this historic outcome is not derailed.”

Given the growing tensions in the Middle East and the Gulf region, China proposed the following: “the Iranian nuclear issue should be speedily brought back to the track of the JCPOA; the Gulf countries should be urged to establish a platform for dialogue and consultation; and countries from outside the region should play a positive role in maintaining security in the region.”

The Foreign Minister also reaffirmed his country’s commitment in combating Climate Change.
