The new Chinese President Xi Jinping has given veiled warnings to North Korea on Sunday, saying no country should be allowed to create chaos.
Speaking at regional business forum in Boao, China Xi said,
"No one should be allowed to throw a region and even the whole world into chaos for selfish gains... While pursuing its own interests, a country should accommodate the legitimate interests of others".
"Peace, like air and sunshine, is hardly noticed when people are benefiting from it. But none of us can live without them".
"Countries, whether big or small, strong or weak, rich or poor, should all contribute their share to maintain and enhancing peace. Rather than undercutting each other's efforts, countries should complement each other and work for joint progress".
"Stability in Asia now faces new challenges, as hotspot issues keep emerging, and both traditional and non-traditional security threats exist... Asia needs to enhance mutual understanding, build consensus, and enrich and deepen cooperation so as to strike a balance among the interests of various parties and build mechanisms that bring benefits to all".
