China News Service, Beijing, August 12 (Reporter Liang Xiaohui and Guo Chaokai) Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin hosted a regular press conference on August 12.
A reporter asked: Speaker of the US House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi and other US lawmakers who participated in the Asia tour held a press conference a few days ago.
Pelosi said that Taiwan is one of the freest "countries" in the world, and this visit concerns Taiwan's democracy, which is in line with the US government's one-China policy and does not seek to change the status quo across the Taiwan Strait.
What is China's comment?
Wang Wenbin: Pelosi's remarks further prove that her visit to China's Taiwan region is connivance and support for the "Taiwan independence" separatist forces.
Pelosi's blatantly calling Taiwan a "country" is a serious political provocation that goes against the one-China principle and the three Sino-US joint communiques.
The DPP authorities have carried out "de-sinicization" and "gradual Taiwan independence" on the island, and are trying their best to create "two Chinas" and "one China, one Taiwan" internationally.
Under such circumstances, Pelosi went to Taiwan and made a high-profile claim to represent the United States. It was obviously an official visit, aimed at inciting cross-strait confrontation and interfering in China's internal affairs. The nature was extremely vicious.
Starting from safeguarding its own sovereignty and territorial integrity, maintaining non-interference in internal affairs, the basic norm of international relations, and truly safeguarding peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait, China has every right and is absolutely necessary to take firm countermeasures against the US provocation.
Pelosi used the so-called democracy as a guise to make excuses for her visit to Taiwan, which is completely futile.
Pelosi's coming to Taiwan has nothing to do with democracy, but a political show that goes against the will of the more than 1.4 billion Chinese people, including Taiwan compatriots, and challenges the one-China principle recognized by the international community. manifestation of righteousness.
If Pelosi really cares about democracy and human rights, she should visit Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, and Libya to express repentance to the hundreds of thousands of innocent people who died under the fire of the US military, and ensure that the United States will never let the United States wantonly violate the UN Charter and international The wickedness of the relationship code is repeated.
Together with friends from all countries who love peace and uphold justice, China will resolutely oppose all words and deeds that interfere in the internal affairs of other countries, resolutely resist all risky moves that undermine regional peace, jointly safeguard the purposes and principles of the UN Charter, and jointly safeguard regional stability and world peace.
