The United States proposed a resolution to the United Nations on Myanmar, which term Myanmar's junta policies as threat to regional peace and security.

When asked to make comments on this resolution, Liu said the situation in Myanmar did not pose any risks to regional and international peace and security.

This issue of Myanmar was part of the nation's internal affairs, Liu said.

Liu said constructive help is needed to solve the Myanmar issue. The international community should support the special envoys of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and the UN Secretary General to make mediation efforts, and should encourage the government of Myanmar to continue its cooperation with the international community.

The other neighboring nations of Myanmar, including the member states of the ASEAN and the Non-Aligned Movement, all held the same attitudes of rejecting the intervention of the UN Security Council into the Myanmar issue, Liu said. 

 China urged concerned nations to act discreetly and show responsible manners, to avoid further complication of Myanmar's situation.
