7 10 May, Admiral Mullen, accompanied by Chen Bingde visit

Global Times ? Global Network reporter segment Cong Cong, U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff Admiral Mike Mullen will be July 9 to 13 on an official visit to China. The visit marks the Sino-US military relations back to the normal track. Nevertheless, the development of military relations continue to face difficulties. Chinese experts pointed out that the key lies in the United States should be more respect and take into account China’s core interests and major concerns.

PLA Chief of General Staff Chen Bingde Mullen had 11 joint meeting with reporters and talked about this passage, he said, the development of healthy and stable and reliable military relations, the key is to trust each other, provided mutual respect. Should understand that a people who respect others, respect by others in order; should know, a respect other countries’ national, to be his country’s respect. Chen Bingde chief also expressed the hope that our American friends can really understand the philosophy of them, others to be humble, to act cautiously.

“General Chen stressed that mutual respect here, the main emphasis is to respect each other’s core interests, take care of each other’s core concerns.” Chinese Military Academy Major General Yao Yunzhu 12 in the “Global Times” reporter interpretation of when to do so. She believes that if the other side’s core interests are not respected and taken into account, then, what about trust? Will not be able to establish long-term, be able to stand the test of trust. For example, in Taiwan, the United States long-term to “Taiwan Relations Act” as the excuse to maintain its arms sales and military links with Taiwan. Contact the years and this not only to relax but do not have to strengthen the trend.

for in the end what is China’s core interests, China’s State Councilor Dai had made in March last year, said: There are three core interests of China, the first is to maintain the basic system and national security, followed by the country’s sovereignty and territorial complete, and the third is the sustained and stable economic and social development.

Yao Yunzhu that the United States first on arms sales to Taiwan should be cautious, it is best to stop arms sales to Taiwan. Second, the United States should explicitly support the Chinese government’s efforts to safeguard national unity, including Tibet and Xinjiang in the position on the issue, against the separatist forces. Third, when China and the neighboring country has some of the conflict, especially when the conflict is not associated with the United States, the United States should do to stabilize the situation work. The United States to “Fire on the water, not fuel.” Fourth, in the global arena, want the U.S. to the “China military threat theory” drop down tone, including criticism of China’s military is not open, transparent, clear intent of the development of military power should be less sound. China, after all, is to a more open and transparent direction, and have done a lot of work. Number of U.S. strategic intentions of the Chinese military really is not much basis for speculation, are from the “enemies of the Chinese military is” out of the starting point of speculation. Do not want the U.S. to China’s military enemies, because there are still many armies can work together to place.

fact, the core interest of China to the United States has always been very taken care of. Since the “911 Incident”, the United States the two biggest security threat is “terrorism” and “the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction.” In both, the Chinese are actively and positively support the U.S. provides. China’s active in the fight against terrorism cooperation with the United States. In the non-proliferation and counter-proliferation, China has done even more. China in order to achieve the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula and the six-party talks mechanism established to play a constructive and leading role. Obama proposed “nuclear-free world,” the idea later, the Chinese government has responded positively. Sino-US relations in a trough period, April 2010, President Hu Jintao attended the meeting in Washington insist on nuclear safety summit, the Obama administration has supported non-proliferation efforts. “Naturally, our core interests, but also want the same respect and consideration for the United States.” Yao Yunzhu said.
