At the same time, a representative of the PRC military department noted that the development and modernization of military equipment by China does not pose a threat to anyone.

"The development and modernization of China’s military equipment is not directed against any country or specific target, and will not pose a threat to any state or region, as long as it is aimed at protecting the country’s national sovereignty, security and development interests", – said Tang Kefei.

As reported by Ukrainian News, on June 17, the China State Shipbuilding Corporation launched its third aircraft carrier, which was named Fujian after the province of mainland China.
