China says it's not proper for the G7 agenda to deviate its focus from international hotspots and be hijacked by a certain nation. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Lu Kang urged the G7 to heed its international role.

"The so-called issues created or fabricated by some nations will not change the main demand of regional nations for peace, development and stability. The Group of Seven, if it still wants to play an important role in the international community, should adopt a matter-of-fact attitude by focusing on and dealing with the most prominent issues in the world. If the G7 agenda is hijacked by the sole interest of a certain nation, I think it will not be conducive to the development and future role of the Group," he said.
