#China has respected the sovereignty of the Republic of Korea (#ROK) and understands its security concerns. However, since the #US deployment of the #THAAD anti-missile system in the ROK undermines China’s strategic security, the Chinese side cannot just look the other way.
The #Chinese and #ROK foreign ministers held in-depth exchange of views on this issue during their recent meeting in #Qingdao, where they elaborated on the two sides’ respective positions and agreed to take each other’s security concerns seriously.
The two ministers agreed to strive to properly handle the issue to make sure it does not become a stumbling block to bilateral relations.

The #US deployment of #THAAD anti-missile system in the #ROK clearly undermines #China’s strategic security interest. China has made clear its concern to the ROK side on multiple occasions.
#ROK officially announced its policy of “three nos & one restriction” (no additional deployment of #THAAD in ROK; no participation in a #US-led missile defense network; no involvement in a trilateral military alliance with the US & Japan; & restriction in use of THAAD deployed).
#China attaches importance to this position of the #ROK government. Based on the understanding between the two sides, China and the ROK were able to properly handle the #THAAD issue.
