China News Service, August 11, Taiwan Affairs Office spokesperson Ma Xiaoguang said in response to enquiry on the 11th that the current situation in the Taiwan Strait is complex and severe. The root cause is that the DPP authorities and the "Taiwan independence" separatist forces are collaborating with external forces and are constantly seeking "independence" provocations. Destroy the peace and stability of the Taiwan Strait.
A reporter asked: According to media reports, Mo Jian, chairman of the "American Institute in Taiwan" recently stated that the situation in the Taiwan Strait has become more uncertain and the United States needs to strengthen regional resistance.
Any comment on this?
Ma Xiaoguang said that the current situation in the Taiwan Strait is complex and severe. The root cause is that the DPP authorities and the "Taiwan independence" separatist forces have been collaborating with external forces to continuously pursue "independence" provocations and undermine the peace and stability of the Taiwan Strait.
Safeguarding national sovereignty and territorial integrity is the country's core interests and the common responsibility of all Chinese people, including Taiwan compatriots.
If "Taiwan independence" dares to provoke and take risks, we have the right to take all necessary measures to stop it.
The Taiwan issue is China's internal affair, and no foreign interference is allowed.
The U.S. weaves various excuses to sell weapons to Taiwan in an attempt to maintain the so-called "Taiwan Strait intimidation and resistance." This will only bring greater threats to peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait and bring greater harm to the interests and well-being of the people on both sides of the strait.
We firmly oppose the US playing the "Taiwan card" and urge the US to abide by the one-China principle and the relevant provisions of the three Sino-US joint communiqués, handle the Taiwan issue carefully and properly, and stop sending wrong signals to "Taiwan independence."
