Q: Not so long ago, the UK and China were talking about "a golden age of China-UK relations". Would you say that now that expression can be accurately used to talk about the state of relations between China and the UK at the moment?

A: Relations between countries should be based on mutual respect, especially with regard to core interests and major concerns, equality and mutual benefit. At the same time, non-interference, a basic norm in international relations, should also be observed. When it comes to China-UK relations, actions matter, not words.
