Has China ever expressed interest in joining NATO? Was there ever actually a declinature?

New Zealand also isn't part of NATO, does that mean NATO are imperialists AND flightless bird haters?

Or is this another way I'm blinded by western media and China has been begging to get into NATO and they're just not reporting it in my sheeple network?

Edit: lol not a Chinese flag, I am blind and phone screen is small. My bad. Replace China with USSR then I guess?

Edit2: my first edit makes it seem like I meant that this comment still makes sense with USSR in place of China. That's not what mean, so to clarify, Im an idiot and this whole comment can be ignored ❤️

Oh yeah, just replace them, they're completely interchangeable bad guy countries, after all.

I mean, I provided a second edit to clarify before this comment but if you want to ignore that, sure. I wrote the edits at around 3am which is why it read badly and I did the second one as soon as I realised the implication.
