China on Tuesday expressed its grave concerns over Japanese media reports fabricating the "China threat" and on the three hypotheses under which China could attack Japan.

Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Zhang Qiyue said such reports are baseless and beyond understanding. China pursues a road of peaceful development and its development poses no threat to any one, she said.

"We oppose to anyone fabricating or instigating the so-called 'China threat.' The parties concerned should give up their Cold War mentality and work to promote peace and development in Asia, and the world as whole," she said.
