Ministry dig at US embargoes
TAKING a dig at the US arms embargo against China, the defense ministry said yesterday that all such US embargoes were a relic of the Cold War and should be lifted. One against Vietnam was lifted earlier this week.
“American public figures on many occasions have said that implementing arms embargoes are a manifestation of Cold War thinking,” ministry spokesman Yang Yujun told reporters.
“In fact, the US still has unilateral arms embargoes against some countries. We think that the United States ought to abandon its Cold War thinking and put an end to such acts that do not accord with the times.” Yang declined to say directly if he was referring to the US arms embargo against China.
