NATO countries already account for 55% of the world’s total military spending. Yet they’re still being asked to raise defense investment to 5% of GDP to build a “more lethal NATO.” What exactly is NATO’s objective behind this? NATO calls itself a regional organization, but it keeps reaching beyond the geographic scope defined in its treaty and into the Asia-Pacific by claiming that what happens there and in Euro-Atlantic are “interconnected.” The world is not blind to NATO’s calculations, and countries in the Asia-Pacific are certainly wary of it. We call on NATO to examine its own behavior, listen to the just voice of the world and let go of its outdated Cold War mentality, bloc confrontation and zero-sum approach. Time for NATO to get its perception right about China and stop manipulating issues on China. China will firmly uphold sovereignty, security, and development interests, and continue to do its part to make the world a more peaceful and stable place.
