Beijing, 4 Apr (ZXS) -- On 6 April, a spokesman for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the CPC Central Committee issued a statement on Tsai Ing-wen's "transit" to the United States. The full text is as follows:

On April 4, Tsai Ing-wen, the leader of China's Taiwan region, traveled to the United States in the name of "transit" and met with US House Speaker McCarthy. We strongly condemn this and will take resolute measures to punish the "Taiwan independence" separatist forces and their acts, and resolutely safeguard national sovereignty and territorial integrity.

For some time, the DPP authorities have misjudged the situation, believing that the Sino-US strategic game has brought opportunities to "rely on the United States for independence", and have increasingly unscrupulously wooed external forces; They thought that by holding the thigh of the United States, they could brazenly seek "independence" provocations and betray national interests. Its so-called "transit" is just a pretense, and seeking "independence" is the true face.

Realizing the complete reunification of the motherland is the common aspiration of all the sons and daughters of China and the meaning of national rejuvenation. The motherland must and will be reunified. The wheel of history is rolling forward, and the "Taiwan independence" separatist forces cannot stop it! Tsai Ing-wen and the DPP authorities stubbornly adhere to the erroneous stand of "Taiwan independence" and willingly act as pawns of the anti-China forces in the United States to curb China for the sake of the selfish interests of one party; this will not change the fact that Taiwan is a part of China, but will only push Taiwan into a dangerous situation of "fighting a fierce war" and bring profound disasters to the broad masses of Taiwan compatriots.

There is only one China in the world, and Taiwan is a part of China. The one-China principle is a universally recognized norm governing international relations and the general consensus of the international community. Resolving the Taiwan issue is Chinese its own affair and is China's internal affair, and brooks no outside interference. The US side has constantly hollowed out the one-China principle, seriously violated its solemn commitments made in the three Sino-US joint communiques, repeatedly adopted wrong words and deeds on the Taiwan issue, and sent a serious wrong signal to the "Taiwan independence" separatist forces. Any act of the anti-China forces in the United States to "contain China with Taiwan" and "support Taiwan to contain China" cannot stop the historical process of China's reunification.

We warn the DPP authorities to completely abandon the "Taiwan independence" conspiracy and not to go all the way down the road of "relying on the United States to seek independence." Otherwise, any act of seeking "independence" will be shattered by the powerful force of the Chinese people opposing "independence" and promoting reunification. (End)
