Multi-polar world
China and the United States are building a new model of major-country relationship without confrontation or conflict, based on mutual respect and win-win cooperation, Wang said.
China has no intention of supplanting the United States, but given the friction over maritime issues, both sides could clearly do more in terms of cooperation.
The economic slowdown will not affect investment and aid promises made at December's Johannesburg meeting of the forum on China-Africa cooperation, Wang said.
On China-Europe relations, Wang said recent progress was not an expediency but a necessity.
China regards Europe as an important pole in a multi-polar world, he said, and Europe has come to view China's rise in an objective and sensible way.
There has been simultaneous and mutually complementary development of relations between China and various European countries, exemplified by Xi's state visit to the United Kingdom.
Relations between China and Russia are mature and stable and the two sides have a strong desire to strengthen win-win cooperation, Wang said.
Wang pulled no punches when he accused Tokyo of "double dealing," saying that there is little ground for optimism in bilateral relations, despite signs of improvement.
On one hand, Japan's leaders regularly produce easy platitudes about their desire for better relations, while on the other they make trouble for China at every turn.
China's policy on the Middle East has nothing to do with expanding its sphere of influence or establishing proxies, but is about facilitating peace talks from an objective and impartial stance. The Belt and Road will deepen mutual pragmatic cooperation in this region.
Wang expressed his confidence in China-Myanmar relations, saying that the friendship is "strong and dynamic." China wants even closer relations with all ASEAN members, building a community of common destiny for the benefit of all.
