(ECNS) -- Recently, remarks made by Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi and U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken on international affairs have drawn widespread attention, showing contrasting visions for international engagement between the two countries.
"Lose-lose is not a rational choice and win-win is the future for mankind," said Wang Yi, also a member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, on Sunday at a joint press conference in the southern Spanish city Cordoba.
Wang's remarks followed questions about the "lose-lose dynamics" highlighted in the Munich Security Report 2024.
Talking about international affairs, Blinken has his perspective.
"If you are not at the table of the international system, you are on the menu," remarked the top U.S. diplomat at a public forum at the Munich Security Conference in Germany on Feb. 17.
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying drew a comparison between them on X (previously known as Twitter), drawing hot debate about the opposing views.
