China calls for 'unimpeded' navigation in Hormuz Strait

China called for "unimpeded" navigation through the Strait of Hormuz, a day after U.S. President Donald Trump threatened to blockade the crucial waterway.

"The Strait of Hormuz is an important international trade route for goods and energy, and maintaining its security, stability, and unimpeded flow is in the common interest of the international community," foreign ministry spokesman Guo Jiakun told a news conference.
