Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin responded to U.S. President Biden's recent negative comments about Taiwan at a regular press conference on May 24.
Wang Wenbin: The US has tried its best to play with words on the issue of the one-China principle, but I would like to remind the US that no force in the world, including the US, can stop the Chinese people from achieving complete national reunification.
There is no force in the world, including the United States, that can save the "Taiwan independence" forces from defeat.
The United States violated its commitments on the Taiwan issue, virtualized and hollowed out the one-China principle, and instigated and supported the "Taiwan independence" separatist activities.
If we continue on the wrong path, it will not only cause irreversible consequences for China-US relations, but will ultimately make the US pay an unbearable price.
We warn the US side that there is only one China in the world, Taiwan is a part of China, and the government of the People's Republic of China is the only legitimate government representing the whole of China. This is the consensus of the international community and a commitment made by the US side.
The one-China principle cannot be shaken, China's sovereignty and territorial integrity cannot be violated, and the red line of "two Chinas" and "one China, one Taiwan" cannot be trampled on.
China is fully confident, fully capable and fully prepared to resolutely curb "Taiwan independence" separatist activities, resolutely thwart all external interference, and resolutely safeguard national sovereignty and territorial integrity.
I advise the US side to listen to an old Chinese song that is very popular in China: When a friend comes, there is good wine, and if the jackal comes, there is a shotgun to greet him.
