He said China \"may be forced to take countermeasures\" and warned that \"there is no winner in a trade war.\"

Responding to the U.S.‑China bilateral relationship and questions about the incoming U.S. Permanent Representative, Ambassador Fusong said he had seen the U.S. hearings and described the nominee as \"a smart lady, articulate, and well prepared,\" but emphasized that China and the United States have shared interests at the United Nations and should take \"a constructive, and I will emphasize, a professional approach\" to their work at the U.N.

On the specific justification offered by the United States—tariffs tied to fentanyl—Ambassador Fusong disputed the reasoning, saying China has stringent regulations on fentanyl and \"is the only country that put the whole category of fentanyl related substance under regulations.\" He suggested the U.S. should address the demand side of drug use rather than \"shifting the blames onto others.\"

On technology and artificial intelligence, Ambassador Fusong addressed questions about a recently publicized AI system referred to in the briefing as \"Deep Seek.\" He said he was not a technical expert but argued that technological containment and broad bans are not effective and encouraged cooperation between the two countries. \"Some of the knee jerk reactions from some quarters is totally unwarranted,\" he said, and he emphasized that China and the United States \"have so much to cooperate\" on AI, including capacity‑building for the Global South under an earlier U.N. General Assembly resolution on AI cooperation.

China's press briefing statements describe the WTO complaint as an action the government is pursuing; no written filing or filing date was produced during the briefing and the ambassador characterized some responses as potential countermeasures rather than finalized steps.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","China: Security Council President for February 2025 - Press Conference | United Nations","oneSentenceSummary","Ambassador Fusong said China is \"firmly opposed\" to a U.S. 10% tariff on Chinese goods, said China is filing a complaint at the World Trade Organization and warned that \"there is no winner in a trade war.\"","taxTitle","United Nations","taxId",77382,"location","headline","shortSummary",{"_33":75,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":76,"_41":77,"_43":78,"_45":79,"_47":80,"_49":81,"_51":82,"_53":83,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":84,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":85,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":56,"_72":56,"_73":56},6669030,"China backs quick, robust Security Council response to eastern DRC violence and urges withdrawal of M23 forces",652,347000,999000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2215685-19415b8029fe356c08e67e27af1b8d14&start=347&end=999","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2215685-19415b8029fe356c08e67e27af1b8d14/thumbnail_347000.jpg","/articles/6669030/China-backs-quick-robust-Security-Council-response-to-eastern-DRC-violence-and-urges-withdrawal-of-M23-forces","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6669030-54db64251681e9c0c4e59b0d563f39ad/orig.mp4?Expires=1770922471&Signature=RkuUk6TEy4KvwSnIdJ1JYKiCAvoK7dP26G9pCI4OZ-L5Asy6HPVPjIgRFZy3fGslbYJrejlDEbRqiMBhA4Wl2OCbICL1QrUhqkf2JLhJ1qVDl2bZ7gCau6ojYmFkInVKDb0xIiJVUKiiFP324yvWf0nkZYFRplIdGmPACs9MBu2rujZd-iG5bLfH4X2V2iq796SWoqjIt8rIHn4qf~8RDGchxA1tUtleRoYJOWVOT2TVkVL4-XgVVWSY6A7FZ2OjO-XQJ9cKLz2ZggNCYziDnzc2VXtGa1DLS78q3FMsrlQeHsFdzgWSnXPqJ0s2uclQ-5kUd1VPSIpxQUBfTqHp6Q__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Ambassador Fusong said China is \"very concerned about the situation in Congo\" and called for a ceasefire and the withdrawal of M23 forces from territory they have occupied. He urged Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) to engage in peace talks and mediation processes such as those held in Nairobi.

Asked whether China would support Security Council language naming Rwanda or sanctioning Kigali, Ambassador Fusong said consultations are under way and that \"there is a possibility of having a resolution\"; he added that China \"is in full support of this\" in both its national capacity and as Council president if the proposal follows consultation. He said the underlying view is that \"there is no military solution to this conflict\" and that peace talks are the only way out.

The ambassador reiterated that the council will closely follow developments in eastern DRC, where he described the situation as \"deteriorating rapidly,\" and that the Council would act in ways \"most conducive to the cessation of hostilities and the easing of tensions.\" He said the DRC's territorial integrity must be respected and demanded the withdrawal of M23 and \"some of the Rwandan troops\" from occupied territory.

China's comments came amid questions from correspondents about whether the Council should single out Rwanda and whether sanctions requested by the DRC should be imposed; the ambassador said the scope of measures, including sanctions, remains subject to consultation among member states and that China was leaving that option open for discussion.","China called for a ceasefire in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo, urged M23 withdraw from occupied territory, and said it supports, in principle, a Security Council resolution under consultation; it also urged Rwanda and the DRC to engage in dialogue.",{"_33":87,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":88,"_41":89,"_43":90,"_45":91,"_47":92,"_49":93,"_51":94,"_53":95,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":96,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":97,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":56,"_72":56,"_73":56},6669035,"China urges implementation of Gaza ceasefire and signals Security Council consultations on West Bank",482,126000,608000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2215685-19415b8029fe356c08e67e27af1b8d14&start=126&end=608","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2215685-19415b8029fe356c08e67e27af1b8d14/thumbnail_126000.jpg","/articles/6669035/China-urges-implementation-of-Gaza-ceasefire-and-signals-Security-Council-consultations-on-West-Bank","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6669035-111a5d7e2f89adfef1e3d5953d5e9dbb/orig.mp4?Expires=1770922471&Signature=DFSIs7htKhXIZpMNN1xhbLZpT4V3x1lU-xaQwibycApdXeh9hbpi0Ovjb2UzQ4zawV4Zggg46qCp51xCNwVZ6X3gSnXZCirm2RjObWnXFluAGw7q0Pe-6vbOwclRwtMjJchDDgIRZhBOzXl8i~VggT9xRYLVTnjOz4BMFEBR1ViSP1zdeyekYLVBYPbr5aRKG4XYbgL2zwTdZCBYU3Q15o5nsXFO8em2q9Bmpa3l3IcrC~MHtebYJ~H4d~3cdlab-moWpAG0ZSobNiOkZR05w39IqAgmLpgQXy8DiR1uvSK72-iH0iRQBL0YZGrpNnDr0V8XunayUamctWvUueeH6A__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Ambassador Fusong said that while there is a ceasefire in Gaza \"now there is a ceasefire, but the situation remains fragile,\" and he urged the international community to ensure the agreement is implemented \"fully and effectively\" and that humanitarian access remain \"open and unhindered.\"

He noted that \"phase 1 of the ceasefire arrangement will end by the end of the month\" and called on the international community to \"promote a comprehensive and a permanent ceasefire and ensure that the ceasefire is uninterrupted and irreversible.\" On the West Bank, he said there were recent reports of Israeli military attacks against residential blocks and refugee camps and that the Palestinian mission presented a letter to the Security Council president asking for swift action.

\"This morning, I met with Minister Mansoor of the Palestinian mission. And he explained he actually presented a letter to the president of the Security Council, and asked the Security Council, to take swift actions to stop the situation,\" Ambassador Fusong said. He added the mission was consulting with Security Council member states \"on the possible meeting\" and \"on the format and the timing of that meeting.\"

Ambassador Fusong said the council will \"closely follow the developments and take actions if needed so as to ensure that the ceasefire agreement is implemented fully and effectively and that the humanitarian access remains open and unhindered.\" He also told reporters the council would pay close attention to agency and humanitarian issues in the occupied territories.

The remarks came during a press briefing at the Permanent Mission of China; no formal Security Council meeting on the West Bank was announced during the briefing.","China’s Security Council president said a fragile ceasefire in Gaza must be made irreversible, noted phase one ends at month’s end, and said the Council is consulting on a meeting after the Palestinian mission presented a letter requesting swift action.",{"_33":99,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":100,"_41":101,"_43":102,"_45":103,"_47":104,"_49":105,"_51":106,"_53":107,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":108,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":109,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":56,"_72":56,"_73":56},6669040,"China, as Security Council president, adopts February program and will host Feb. 18 high‑level debate on multilateralism",506,73000,579000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2215685-19415b8029fe356c08e67e27af1b8d14&start=73&end=579","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2215685-19415b8029fe356c08e67e27af1b8d14/thumbnail_73000.jpg","/articles/6669040/China-as-Security-Council-president-adopts-February-program-and-will-host-Feb-18-highlevel-debate-on-multilateralism","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6669040-f1364bb879b12ed7f93bf94851f50236/orig.mp4?Expires=1770922471&Signature=J4H3sECTHVXZa5-uE0dQDnWOj9ZRAekg9MRDCelP-AeiM~186hkb3iorYC0evHACKTnrXQREsPrLQWLctR-qTrsUCMAbWGjrh2Y79jOmXrXCXk~0akv2e0bKIWU2UK7FOwhnifSdhTAc8NU0tsdRr4HCTMzF-FdpHu~gnOybI8mVeUHZCzJkPbNMHhKdp9jQTuiUbd~9SYDb6HMisWylejrF0MRt3eKkDPXwO8GTE5Mf5amTt6UhCga593CX2RDFU8f3ACIPAfJzKCIOxhx7yp7HN-oBY1mYA2EOldv20xwgJvcq6Jip3qxC6K3ecXoxzPoq7a~OVJ-xY4PAvhU2jQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Ambassador Fusong, Permanent Representative of China and president of the U.N. Security Council for February, said the council adopted a program of work in an internal consultation and will hold a high‑level open debate on Feb. 18 titled \"practicing multilateralism, reforming, and improving global governance,\" with Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi expected to preside.

The program of work, Ambassador Fusong said, reflects China's priorities as the rotating president for the month: a signature event on multilateralism timed with the United Nations' 80th anniversary, briefings on Gaza and the broader Middle East situation, attention to Syria in the context of Security Council Resolution 2254, and multiple African items including U.N. missions in South Sudan, Libya and the Central African Republic and developments in Sudan and eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo.

\"It is an honor for China and for me personally to assume the Security Council presidency for the month of February. We see this as an important responsibility,\" Ambassador Fusong said. He described the council's work as \"quite full\" and said China would \"engage extensively and closely with all parties on all issues on the agenda and try our best to build the broadest possible consensus.\"

The ambassador said the Feb. 18 open debate will invite foreign ministers and senior officials, including from non‑Council members, and aims to encourage states to \"revisit the original aspirations of the UN, reaffirm their commitment to multilateralism and the important role of the United Nations, including the Security Council, and to explore ways to reform and improve the global governance.\" He said the initiative is intended to respond to calls—particularly from the Global South—to reform global governance \"to better reflect the changing realities of the global political and economic landscape.\"

On process, Ambassador Fusong said the mission will invite civil society representatives \"to participate in relevant meetings as appropriate\" and will keep close contact with media \"to ensure transparency of our work.\" He also said the council will hold its annual dialogue with peacekeeping police and consultations related to DPRK sanctions, and will remain prepared to address other \"hotspot\" issues as they arise.

The mission said members held an internal consultation to adopt the month’s program; the ambassador characterized that adoption as the basis for the items he then outlined. No formal public vote or text of the adopted program was published during the briefing.

China's spokesperson Li Zemin introduced the event and said Minister‑Counselor Sun Zhi Chang was present at the mission for the briefing.","China's UN mission said Security Council members adopted a program of work during internal consultations that prioritizes a February 18 high‑level open debate on multilateralism and a slate of briefings on the Middle East, Africa and peacekeeping matters.","actionData","errors"]
