问 8日，特朗普总统发表电视讲话，称美国正在评估如何应对伊朗对美军事基地的袭击，同时将立即对伊朗实施额外的惩罚性经济制裁。美军事和装备强大，但并不意味着美必须使用。中方对此有何评论？
Q On January 8, US President Trump said in a televised speech that as the US continues to evaluate options in response to Iranian aggression, it will immediately impose additional punishing economic sanctions on Iran. He also said, "The fact that we have this great military and equipment, however, does not mean we have to use it." I wonder what is China ' s comment on that?
