Quad meet: Beijing says US playing up 'China threat' theory to stoke confrontation

Terming the Quad alliance between the US, India, Australia and Japan as a "tool" to contain China's rise and to maintain American hegemony, Beijing said on Friday that the grouping is a 'deliberate move' to stoke confrontation and it is doomed to fail. China, which has territorial disputes with many countries in the strategic Indo-Pacific region, has been opposing the Quad alliance since its formation.
