(Fighting against New Crown Pneumonia) Hua Chunying: Taiwan ’s so-called attempt to join the WHO is a thorough political manipulation

  China News Service, Beijing, May 8 (Huang Yuqin), Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesperson Hua Chunying said at a regular press conference on the 8th that Taiwan ’s so-called attempts to join the World Health Organization and participate in the World Health Assembly were not for the people of Taiwan. Health and well-being, but thorough political manipulation, will not succeed.

  A reporter asked the spokesman of Taiwan ’s so-called “Ministry of Foreign Affairs” that the UN 1971 resolution only resolved the issue of China ’s representation, did not resolve the issue of Taiwan, nor granted China the power to represent the people of Taiwan on international occasions. WHO should get rid of the control of the Chinese government and allow Taiwan to participate fully in the fight against epidemics. What is China's comment?

  "Taiwan's relevant remarks are pure stealing and confusing." Hua Chunying responded.

  She said that as everyone knows, the 26th United Nations General Assembly adopted Resolution 2758 in October 1971, recognizing that the People ’s Republic of China is the only legal government representing the entire Chinese people. China ’s representation in the United Nations has been completely resolved politically, legally and procedurally The question fully embodies the one-China principle upheld by the United Nations. There is only one China in the world, and Taiwan is an inalienable part of Chinese territory. This is a general consensus of the international community. The United Nations has repeatedly reiterated that it will insist on handling the Taiwan issue in accordance with General Assembly Resolution 2758. As a specialized agency of the United Nations, the World Health Organization should abide by the UN General Assembly resolutions. The resolution 25.1 of the World Health Assembly reaffirmed the resolution 2758 of the UN General Assembly and confirmed the issue of China's representation in WHO.

  Hua Chunying emphasized that the relevant Taiwanese comments have exposed the sinister intentions of the DPP authorities to use the current new coronary pneumonia epidemic to seek "Taiwan independence." Its so-called attempts to join the World Health Organization and participate in the World Health Assembly are not for the health of the Taiwanese people. Well-being, but thorough political manipulation, will not succeed. (Finish)
