Chinese ambassador warns of Nato expansion eastward into Asia
THE West has started expanding Nato eastward into Asia, Chinese diplomat Zhang Hanhui warned yesterday, as he said the US would not be allowed to use “the law of the jungle” in international relations.
The ambassador to Russia accused Washington of trying to create a crisis in the Taiwan Strait “to interfere in its domestic affairs” and exhaust and contain China through war and sanctions.
He said that its actions against Taiwan indicated that the West had begun to apply the “Nato expansion to the East” concept in the Asia-Pacific region.
