China will never develop itself at the expense of other countries' interests, nor will it give up its legitimate rights and interests. No one should fantasize about letting China swallow the bitter fruit that harms its own interests. China pursues a defensive national defense policy. The development of China poses no threat to any country. No matter how developed China is, it will never seek hegemony or expand.

1953, when Zhou Enlai met with the Indian delegation, he first put forward the five principles of mutual respect for territorial sovereignty, mutual non-aggression, non-interference in each other's internal affairs, equality and mutual benefit, and peaceful coexistence. Later, the wording was revised to: mutual respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity, mutual non-aggression, non-interference in each other's internal affairs, equality and mutual benefit, and peaceful coexistence.
After the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence were put forward, they have been recognized by more and more countries in the world and become the basic principles for solving the relations between countries. The proposal of the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence is a complete embodiment of China's independent foreign policy and marks the maturity of China's foreign policy. The proposal of the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence is a great pioneering work in the history of international relations and has made historic contributions to promoting the establishment of a fair and reasonable new type of international relations. This also shows that China has determined an independent diplomatic line of peace.
