PANews reported on January 26 that, according to a report by Global Times cited by Jinshi, in response to the US threat to impose 100% tariffs, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun stated that China advocates that all countries should handle relations between nations based on the principles of win-win rather than appeasement, and through cooperation rather than confrontation. The establishment of a new type of strategic partnership between China and Canada, and the specific arrangements for properly resolving economic and trade issues between the two countries, embody the spirit of equality, openness, inclusiveness, peace, cooperation, and shared benefits. It is not directed against any third party, is in the common interest of the people of both countries, and is also conducive to world peace, stability, development, and prosperity.
