Description
China says it respects the "sovereign state status" of all ex-Soviet countries on Monday, after Beijing's ambassador to France sparked outrage in Europe by questioning the sovereignty of those nations.
It also responds to Australia's biggest defence overhaul in decades that vowed to deter China or any would-be foe, saying that it hopes some countries would "refrain from using China as an excuse to expand their military power or groundlessly hype up the 'China threat' theory". IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
