2014年CRI 美国发布年度中国军力报告 我国防部对美国指责表强烈不满

 

The Chinese Defense¹ Ministry² is lashing³ out at the most recent U.S. allegations connected to the Chinese military.

The Defense Ministry says US accusations⁴ of China's military threat and lack of transparency are "clichés."

The Defense Ministry is also blaming the United States for "sending wrong signals in territorial⁵ disputes" in the Asia-Pacific region.

The comments follow the United States' annual report on China's military development and security, which came out last week.

The Chinese Defense Ministry does note the US still spends several times more per-year on its military than China does.

The Chinese government says it fully⁶ backs global maritime⁷ law and supports direct talks among disputing parties when it comes to the world's oceans.

The comments have come to mark the 20th anniversary of the implementation⁸ of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea.

A statement from the Chinese foreign ministry says negotiations⁹ based on law and history are the most effective way to settle maritime disputes.

The anniversary of the implementation of the UN Sea treaty comes amid a growing number of territorial disputes in both the South and East China Seas.
