On March 9, Wu Qian, spokesman for the delegation of the People's Liberation Army and the Armed Police Force at the Fifth Session of the 13th National People's Congress, was interviewed by the media.

　　Wu Qian said that there is only one China in the world, and Taiwan is an inalienable part of China's territory.

The compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait are brothers of flesh and blood who share a common destiny, and a family whose blood is thicker than water.

We have always adhered to the policy of "peaceful reunification and one country, two systems", and will do our best to strive for the prospect of peaceful reunification across the Taiwan Strait with the greatest sincerity, but we will never tolerate the "Taiwan independence" separatist forces to split the motherland.

　　The PLA's relevant exercises and training are aimed at "Taiwan independence" separatist activities and interference by external forces, and are by no means aimed at Taiwan compatriots.

Since the DPP authorities came to power, they have refused to recognize the "1992 Consensus", stepped up their separatist activities for "Taiwan independence", and at the same time colluded with external forces to carry out "independence" provocations.

Such actions have seriously damaged the well-being of Taiwan compatriots and the fundamental interests of the Chinese nation. They are the root cause of the current tension and turmoil in the Taiwan Strait.

History has proved that many acts of injustice will lead to suicide. To pursue "Taiwan independence" is nothing more than a cockroach shaking a tree, and in the end it can only lead to self-destruction.

　　The Taiwan question is purely China's internal affairs, and no foreign interference is allowed.

By playing the "Taiwan card", the United States and Japan try to realize their political plan of "taking Taiwan to control China", which is destined to be a dream that cannot come true.

The more the United States and Japan have a quarrel over the Taiwan issue, the harder our actions to safeguard national sovereignty and territorial integrity will be.

It must be pointed out that the Chinese People's Liberation Army will not tolerate the separatist acts of "Taiwan independence" and the interference of external forces, and will fight when it shows up.
