Q: According to reports, the US government announced on June 8 that it has approved a new arms sales plan to Taiwan. It plans to provide Taiwan with US$120 million worth of warship spare parts and related technical support.

Any comments on this please?

  A: The United States sells arms and provides military technical support to China's Taiwan region, which seriously violates the one-China principle and the three Sino-US joint communiqués, especially the "August 17" communiqué, grossly interferes in China's internal affairs, and seriously damages China's sovereignty and security interests. , seriously jeopardizing the peace and stability of the Taiwan Strait, China is strongly dissatisfied and firmly opposed to this.

  Taiwan is an inalienable part of China's territory.

China must be unified, and it is bound to be unified.

China urges the United States to immediately withdraw the above-mentioned arms sales plan to Taiwan, stop arms sales to Taiwan and military ties between the United States and Taiwan, and stop sending wrong signals to the "Taiwan independence" separatist forces, so as to avoid further damage to the relationship between the two countries and the two militaries.

  We warn the DPP authorities and certain external forces that there is no way out for "relying on foreign countries to seek independence", and "using Taiwan to control China" is doomed to failure.

The Chinese People's Liberation Army will take effective measures to resolutely thwart any form of external interference and "Taiwan independence" separatist attempts, and resolutely defend national sovereignty and territorial integrity.
