Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Zhao Lijian hosted a regular press conference on April 1. A reporter asked questions about the initial signing of the China-Solomons bilateral security cooperation framework agreement between China and the Solomon Islands.

  Zhao Lijian: The starting point of security cooperation between China and the Solomon Islands is to safeguard the safety of people's lives and property. It does not have any military overtones. The relevant remarks and speculations in the media are groundless and have ulterior motives.

When it comes to the issue of militarization of the South Pacific region, some countries, despite the strong opposition of regional countries, do not hesitate to introduce the risk of nuclear proliferation into the South Pacific, and insist on creating a small circle of militarization, which seriously threatens regional security and stability. Wanton trampling and destruction.
