Ministry of Foreign Affairs: Taiwan is China's Taiwan, it is not the turn of the United States to make irresponsible remarks

　　Chinanews.com, Beijing, October 14 (Reporter Guo Chaokai) In response to US politicians’ remarks related to Taiwan, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian responded at a regular press conference on the 14th that Taiwan is China’s Taiwan, and it is not the turn of the United States to say Three repetitions.

China’s relevant measures are legitimate and reasonable measures to safeguard the country’s sovereignty and security, territorial integrity, and its own rights and interests.

　　A reporter asked questions. According to reports, US Pentagon Press Secretary Kobe told reporters on Tuesday that China has increased its intimidation and oppression of Taiwan and other partners and allies, including stepping up military activities near Taiwan, the East China Sea and the South China Sea. This has undermined regional stability. Increase the risk of misjudgment.

What is China's comment?

　　Zhao Lijian said that with the joint efforts of China and neighboring countries in the South China Sea, the situation in the South China Sea is generally stable.

The relevant US remarks seriously violated the one-China principle and the provisions of the three Sino-US joint communiqués, deliberately using relevant issues to provoke relations between countries in the divorced region and sending out extremely wrong and irresponsible signals to the outside world. China is strongly dissatisfied and firmly opposed to this.

　　He further pointed out that for a period of time, the U.S. has continued its passive actions in selling weapons to Taiwan and strengthening official military ties between the U.S. and Taiwan, including the introduction of a US$750 million weapons sale to Taiwan, U.S. aircraft landing on Taiwan Island, and frequent warships crossing the Taiwan Strait. Continuing to stir up trouble in the South China Sea and China's surrounding areas, show off its force, and artificially instigate geopolitical confrontation, this has fully exposed the true face of the United States as a destroyer of regional peace and stability, a spoiler of unity and cooperation, and a troublemaker.

　　"We urge the U.S. to take China’s position and concerns seriously, strictly abide by the one-China principle and the provisions of the three Sino-U.S. joint communiqués, stop making irresponsible remarks on Taiwan and maritime issues, and do more to benefit China-U.S. relations and regional peace. Stable development." Zhao Lijian said.
