China believes that missile defense (MD) system could not resolve a country's security concern. On the contrary, the deployment of MD system is detrimental to global strategic balance and stability, undermines mutual trusts among countries and affects regional and international security. It might also result in the proliferation of missile technologies and bring about an arms race. China hopes countries concerned should act prudently on this issue.

At present, countries all over the world become more and more close to each other, and their security interdependence deepens. Every country should foster a new security concept featuring mutual trust, mutual benefit, equality and coordination, so as to maintain international peace and security.
