China News Service, Beijing, September 16 (Reporter Zhang Su) In response to reports that high-level US military officials called the Chinese military, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian responded at a regular press conference on the 16th.

  Recently, it has been exposed by the US media that Mark Milly, the top general of the US military and chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, called the Chinese military twice.

Some reporters asked China's response.

  "I don't know the specific situation you mentioned. What I can tell you is that, as a permanent member of the UN Security Council and the world's two largest economies, China and the United States will benefit both from cooperation, while fighting will hurt both." Zhao Lijian replied.
