BEIJING: Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu on Thursday reaffirmed China's no involvement policy in Myanmar's internal affairs and called for peaceful solutions.

Jiang made the comments in response to a question whether Myanmar's action to send troops to Kokang region was based on China's information.

"China never interferes in Myanmar's internal affairs and would like to see Myanmar resolve its issues through peaceful consultations," she said.

Armed conflicts broke out in Myanmar in August after a move-in of the government troops in Laukkai, the capital of the Kokang region.  The standoff between the two forces have triggered large outflux of border inhabitants into the neighboring Yunnan Province's Nansan area.
