The Wall Street Journal reported that China warned NATO not to "provoke confrontation" after the organization identified Beijing as a "challenge to its interests" during its 2024 Summit.
NATO met in Washington D.C. on July 9-11 for its 75th Anniversary of the Alliance. During the summit, NATO claimed China was a "decisive enabler" of the Russia-Ukraine war and was participating in an effort to find "an alternative to the U.S-led global order," according to the WTJ. In response, China said NATO was threatening its own interests and claimed it would continue to "promote peace talks" and push for a "political settlement" in the war.
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman, Lin Jin, said on July 11 NATO's statement was "full of prejudice, smears and provocations,"
Jin also said NATO was involving itself in Asia and the process, interfering with China's interests. Therefore, China warned NATO to "avoid messing up Asia the way it messed up Europe."
