Cutaway reporter3. Wide of news conference4. Cutaway reporters5. SOUNDBITE (English) John Kerry, US Secretary of State:\"Neither one of our nations will accept North Korea as a nuclear weapon state. And we are both determined to fully enforce the UN Security Council resolution 2270. So I am grateful our Chinese counterparts have agreed to have experts from each of our countries come together to coordinate a full and effective implementation of sanctions going forward from now.\" 6. Cutaway flags7. SOUNDBITE (English) John Kerry, US Secretary of State:\"I also raised international concerns about growing restrictions on freedom of religion and expression, specifically the targeting of some lawyers, religious adherents and civil society leaders. And we had an in-depth discussion about tensions between China and neighbours in the South China Sea. I reiterated America's fundamental support for negotiations and a peaceful resolution based on the rule of law, as well as, obviously, our concern about unilateral steps by any party, whichever claimant, to alter the status quo.\" 8. Cutaway close of reporter9. SOUNDBITE (Mandarin) Yang Jiechi, China's State Councillor:\"The islands in the South China Sea have been China's inherent territory since ancient time. China has the right to safeguard territorial sovereignty and legitimate maritime rights and interests. China's position of not accepting or participating in the arbitration of the South China Sea issue in accordance with the international law including the UNCLOS (United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea) remains unchanged. China always preserves and respects the freedom of navigation and overflight by every country, under the UNCLOS.\"10. Wide of news conference11. SOUNDBITE (Mandarin) Yang Jiechi, China's State Councillor:\"Since the establishment of the new China, especially after the 'Opening and Reform' era, the progress China has made on the human rights cause are obvious to all. Chinese people, according to the law, enjoy all kinds of freedom, including the freedom of religion and the freedom of speech.\"12. Cutaway close of reporter13. SOUNDBITE (English) Jacob Lew, US Treasury Secretary:\"China has committed to ensure that its central government policies in support do not target the net expansion of steel capacity, and to actively and appropriately wind down 'zombie enterprises' through a range of efforts, including restructuring and bankruptcy.\" 14.
