China News Service, Beijing, October 26 (Reporter Li Jingze) Regarding Taiwan's "person in charge of foreign affairs" Wu Zhaoxie will visit Slovakia and the Czech Republic successively, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian told the Taiwan authorities at a regular press conference on the 26th to try to coerce foreigners. Self-respect for "Taiwan independence" is destined to be a dead end.

  A reporter asked a question. According to reports, Taiwan’s "head of foreign affairs" Wu Zhaoxie will visit Slovakia and the Czech Republic in the near future. What's China’s comment?

  Zhao Lijian said that Wu Zhaoxie is a typical "Taiwan independence" separatist. The real purpose of his visits is to promote the "Taiwan independence" separatist proposition, create the illusion of "one China, one Taiwan", and disrupt China's relations with countries with diplomatic relations.

China expresses its firm opposition to relevant countries' connivance of "Taiwan independence" separatists, and requires relevant countries to abide by the one-China principle and refrain from providing a platform for "Taiwan independence" separatist activities.

  Zhao Lijian said that we are also telling the Taiwan authorities that we are destined to be a dead end in attempting to use foreigners to promote "Taiwan independence."

China is unswerving in its determination and will to defend national sovereignty and territorial integrity and will take all necessary measures to resolutely crush any "Taiwan independence" conspiracy.
