Speaking at the UN General Assembly underway in New York,

Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi 

focuses much of his speech on the ongoing crisis in Ukraine, specifying that "China supports every effort that leads to a peaceful solution to the crisis. "And added that" the main priority is to facilitate peace talks ", specifying that" the fundamental solution is to address the legitimate security problems of each faction involved ".

Starting from the principle according to which China supports the resolution of "hot problems in a constructive way, following the

principle of non-interference

", the Chinese foreign minister clarified: "We ask the warring parties in Ukraine to prevent the conflict from spreading" .

The Taiwan knot

But the powerful holder of the diplomacy of the Dragon also has it for the other hot topic on the international chessboard: the crisis in

Taiwan

and its precarious

status

, between independentist pushes, on the one hand (for greater autonomy from Beijing), and conditioning Chinese on the other.

In fact, Yi declared that "we must fight the separatist activities for Taiwan's independence and take measures against external interference".

On this point, in particular, Wang uses a strong and evocative expression: "Any plan to interfere in China's internal affairs is bound to meet strong opposition from all Chinese and any move to hinder the reunification of China is bound to be crushed by the wheels of history ".

Any plan to interfere in China's internal affairs is bound to meet strong opposition from all Chinese and any move to thwart China's reunification is bound to be crushed by the wheels of history.

The bilateral with Blinken

In a bilateral meeting with Anthony Blinken, held a few hours earlier, Wang Yi had addressed "China's solemn position on recent

US misconduct on Taiwan

", the red line of bilateral relations.

Beijing's accusation in Washington is "sending very dangerous signals" by encouraging Taipei's independence, according to the report by the Chinese Foreign Ministry.

"The Taiwan issue is at the core of China's fundamental interests and has significant weight in the minds of the Chinese people," Wang said.

Our mission is to safeguard national sovereignty and territorial integrity

, and there is no ambiguity about it ”.

The holder of the Beijing diplomacy also expressed the hope that the American side could correct "its perception of China, rethinking the policy guided by containment and repression" and aiming for an environment favorable to the resumption of normal trade "on a healthy and stable development path ".
