Wang: World realizes US on 'wrong side of history'

The differences or conflicts between China and the United States are not about power, position or social systems, but about upholding multilateralism or unilateralism, promoting win-win cooperation or a zero-sum game, State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi told an audience in Paris on Monday during his European tour.

" (I) believe that all countries in the world are already aware that the US is now standing on the wrong side of history," Wang said, adding that it seems that current US diplomacy is only about unilateral sanctions and attacks that smear China.

He made the remarks when asked about how to avoid a new Cold War between China and the US after delivering a speech at the French Institute for International Relations.
