New Zealand is dissatisfied with our actions! The New Zealand side claims that China did not inform them! On August 22, according to AFP, the French media reported that New Zealand military documents showed that China had deployed powerful warships in the South Pacific to carry out "unprecedented" and unexplained missions, which caused great dissatisfaction in New Zealand. A New Zealand military official wrote in notes: We have never seen such a powerful ship so close to our coast - these ships are equipped with land, sea, and air combat capabilities.

In a memo written by the New Zealand military, it was stated: The Chinese government has not informed us of the reason for deploying this fleet to our region. China is increasingly demonstrating its military strength. Obviously, regarding our military activities near New Zealand, the New Zealand side is accusing us first of not informing New Zealand, and secondly, of intentionally showcasing strength.

However, the New Zealand and French media clearly have an intention to distort the facts about China sending warships to carry out missions near New Zealand. In February this year, a Chinese navy vessel formation conducted live-fire exercises in the open sea near New Zealand and Australia. At that time, the New Zealand Defense Department stated that the Chinese naval task force had informed them via radio channels of their intention to conduct live-fire shooting. New Zealand Prime Minister Luxon also stated that China's actions comply with international law.

Therefore, where is the claim that China did not inform New Zealand? It is obvious that the French media is deliberately taking things out of context and spreading false information, intentionally shaping our image as "aggressive," but this is not the truth. In fact, our actions comply with international law. Other countries can freely navigate in the relevant area, and we can certainly do so as well. Therefore, there is no reason for New Zealand to deliberately exaggerate our actions, and the distorted reporting by the French media is even more despicable.
