At a regular press conference, a Foreign Ministry spokesperson responded to a question concerning the G20 Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors Meeting.

外交部发言人在例行记者会上就G20财长和央行行长会议相关问题作出回应

The spokesperson said: “We have noted that the parties held differing views on the relevant issues at the recently concluded G20 Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors Meeting. China deeply regrets that the meeting failed to issue a communiqué. As the premier forum for international economic cooperation, the G20 should coordinate on major global economic issues in an objective, impartial and balanced manner, based on the principles of consensus and equal participation.”

发言人表示，我们注意到，各方在刚刚举行的G20财长和央行行长会议上对相关问题持不同看法，中方对会议未能发表公报深表遗憾。G20作为国际经济合作主要平台，应基于协商一致、平等参与的原则，客观、公正、平衡对全球经济重要问题开展协调。
