Скачать или смотреть China rejects Trump's plan to reclaim Bagram Air Base near its border, cites Afghan sovereignty

Trump, speaking at a joint press conference in the UK with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, on Thursday said he was trying to get the Bagram Air Base back because of its proximity to where China makes nuclear weapons. The US President was on a state visit to the UK. China too conveyed its opposition to Trump's remarks, with Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian telling a media briefing in Beijing that "stirring up tension and confrontation in the region will not be supported". "China respects Afghanistan's independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity... Afghanistan's future should rest in the hands of the Afghan people," he said.
