China urges US to be cautious on South China Sea issue

China has rebuffed US Secretary of state John Kerry’s remarks on the South China Sea issue. And China’s Foreign Ministry urged the country to be cautious in its words and deeds.

"On the South China Sea issue, China keeps smooth and effective communication with countries of the association of Southeast Asian Nations. We hope the relevant country will respect the efforts made by China and ASEAN countries on the South China Sea issue, strictly abide by its commitment of not taking a position, and be cautious with its words and deeds. We urge the relevant country to be more helpful for the mutual trust among countries in the region and the peace and stability of the region, not the opposite," Hua Chunying, spokeswoman of Chinese Foreign Ministry, said.
