China Urges US to Stop 'Using' Other Countries for its Own Interests

China has urged the US to stop using other countries as a pretext to pursue its own interests, following President Donald Trump's statement that the US should take control of Greenland to prevent its potential takeover by Russia or China. Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning emphasized that the Arctic concerns the interests of the entire international community and that China's actions in the region aim to promote peace, stability, and sustainable development. China also calls for respect for the rights of all nations to conduct legitimate activities in the Arctic.
