Ministry of National Defense: The PLA resolutely defends national sovereignty and territorial integrity and does not leave any room for "Taiwan independence" separatist activities.
Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, March 16 (Reporter Zhang Mimi) When answering a reporter’s question on the recent military-related issues, Tan Kefei, spokesman of the Ministry of National Defense, stressed on the 16th that the Taiwan Province issue is the core of China’s core interests, and the China People’s Liberation Army resolutely defends national sovereignty and territorial integrity, and will never leave any room for any form of "Taiwan independence" separatist activities.
A reporter asked, it is reported that in recent days, US congressmen and officials of the Ministry of National Defense have repeatedly fled to Taiwan to provoke, and the United States has also approved a new round of arms sales to Taiwan, increased military training with Taiwan, and aggravated tensions in the Taiwan Strait. The head of Taiwan’s defense department said that in view of the tension between the two sides of the strait, Taiwan should be alert to the PLA’s "intrusion" into the area near Taiwan. What is the spokesman’s comment on this?
Tan Kefei said that Taiwan Province is Taiwan Province of China and Taiwan Province of all China people. At present, the situation in the Taiwan Strait continues to be tense, the root of which lies in the Democratic Progressive Party authorities’ collusion with external forces for "independence" provocation and their insistence on standing on the opposite side of the fundamental interests of the Chinese nation. Compatriots on both sides of the strait are closely related by blood and are close to each other. We are willing to create a broad space for peaceful reunification, but we will never leave any space for any form of "Taiwan independence" separatist activities. It is only natural and natural for the PLA to take relevant military actions in response to the interference of external forces and the "Taiwan independence" separatist activities.
He emphasized that the Taiwan Province issue is purely an internal affair of China, the core of China’s core interests and the first insurmountable red line of Sino-US relations. China resolutely opposes any form of official exchanges and military ties between the United States and Taiwan, and resolutely opposes the US upgrading its substantive relations with Taiwan in any form. We urge the United States to give up its plot of "controlling China with Taiwan" and stop "cutting sausages" and making breakthroughs on the Taiwan Province issue.
Tan Kefei said, opposing "independence" and promoting reunification, Taiwan Province is a Chinese angelica. The China People’s Liberation Army (PLA) is ready for any act by the Democratic Progressive Party authorities to split the motherland and any interference and provocation by external forces, and resolutely defends national sovereignty and territorial integrity.
