Question: It is reported that the US Army Pacific released a readout on its website that the US 1st MDTF had deployed mid-range missiles to northern Luzon, the Philippines for the first time. Analysts say that the missile is able to reach China's coast. What's your comment on this?
Wu Qian: We firmly oppose the US deployment of medium-range ballistic missiles in the Asia-pacific. Our position is clear and consistent. The US move severely threatens the security of regional countries and undermines regional peace and stability. China will take resolute countermeasures. We hope the relevant country could refrain from opening the door to the devil, which will only end up hurting everyone including itself.
