"The second round of meetings between the leaders of DPRK and the US is happening in Hanoi.

In response to the report that two US navy ships sailed through the Taiwan Strait from Sunday to Monday, Lu said China is "firmly against such provocative actions."

Regarding the airstrike India launched early Tuesday on Kashmir, Lu called for both India and Pakistan to "remain restrained."

India said it targeted a terrorist training camp in a pre-emptive strike that killed a "very large number" of militants.

Lu said the campaign against terrorism requires international cooperation.
