TREE NEWS update: Chinese Defense Ministry spokesperson Senior Colonel Jiang Bin said head-of-state diplomacy plays an irreplaceable strategic role in China-US military relations, and Beijing is willing to work with Washington to implement the two leaders’ consensus on military affairs. He called for stronger communication and dialogue, practical cooperation, and proper management of differences, so that military ties stay stable and healthy and support a constructive strategic stability relationship.
China Defense Ministry: Military Ties With US Must Follow Leaders’ Consensus
AI take
The framing is notable: Beijing is anchoring military-to-military engagement to head-of-state consensus rather than to working-level channels, which keeps the relationship's stability dependent on the political layer above it. The emphasis on dialogue and "proper management of differences" signals continuity in crisis-communication efforts, but the wording also implies that practical cooperation remains conditional on that top-level alignment holding. Whether that consensus translates into resumed or expanded military contacts is the open question.
