Three wants and three want-nots

China's foreign policy seeks peace, development and cooperation instead of conflict, poverty and confrontation

Recently, some people in Australia have shown a keen interest in the orientation of China's foreign policy. I would like to share my thoughts on this issue.

First, the centerpiece of China's foreign policy can be characterized as "three wants and three don't wants". As the report to the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China pointed out, mankind has only one Earth to live on, and countries have only one world to share. The arbitrary use of force cannot make the world a better place.
