石破首相に祝電　安定的関係の構築訴え―中国主席

　【北京時事】中国外務省は２日、習近平国家主席が石破茂首相に祝電を送ったと発表した。
　習氏は１日に送った祝電で「両国が共に平和を歩み互いに協力することが両国国民の利益に合致する」と強調。「（日中間で確認した）戦略的互恵関係を全面的に推進し、新たな時代の要請に応える建設的で安定的な中日関係を構築するよう希望する」とした。李強首相も祝電を送った。
　中国は、石破氏が提唱する「アジア版北大西洋条約機構（ＮＡＴＯ）」など石破政権の安全保障政策を警戒。一方で、歴史認識では折り合いが可能との見方もあり、石破政権の今後の出方を見極めるとみられる。（2024/10/02-12:47）

Chinese President Xi Jinping has called on new Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba to build a stable relationship between their countries, the Chinese Foreign Ministry said Wednesday.
   In a congratulatory telegram sent Tuesday to Ishiba, who took office the same day, Xi emphasized that it would be in the interests of the people of both countries for Tokyo and Beijing to walk the path of peace together and cooperate with each other.
   Xi said he hopes that China and Japan will fully promote the mutually beneficial strategic relationship that has been confirmed between the two countries in a bid to build constructive and stable bilateral ties that meet the demands of the new era.
   Chinese Premier Li Qiang also sent a congratulatory message to Ishiba.
   China is wary of the Ishiba administration's security policies, such as the creation of an Asian version of NATO advocated by the new prime minister. Meanwhile, some believe that China can come to terms with Ishiba on history issues.
