Chinese FM spokesperson Mao Ning

Asked to comment on the UK Ambassador to the US Peter Mandelson's claim that the US and its allies across the Atlantic must forge a technology partnership, warning of so-called "consequences" if China continues to get ahead in AI and other key technologies, Mao Ning, a spokesperson for the Chinese Foreign Ministry, said that China has always believed that only by adhering to openness and cooperation can the path of innovation and development become wider and wider. 

"We attach importance to international exchanges in scientific and technological innovation, and we also believe that the results of scientific and technological innovation should benefit all countries," Mao said.
