China: South China Sea is not a combat arena

The Minister of Foreign Affairs of China Van and stated that the South China Sea is not a safari park or an arena of hostilities for the rivalry of large powers, reports Reuters.

This was the Foreign Minister of China at the opening of a virtual seminar dedicated to the 20th anniversary of the signing of the declaration of the behavior of the parties in the South China Sea.

According to Van and, issues arising around this territory, can only be solved by the countries of the region. Thus, he warned other countries against interference and the creation of a “combat arena” at sea.
