Taiwan. com, April 26 - On April 25, the Ministry of National Defense held a regular press conference. Major Wu Qian, Director of the Information Bureau of the Ministry of National Defense and spokesman of the Ministry of National Defense, answered questions from reporters on current hot topics across the Taiwan Straits. He said that Taiwan is China's territory and the Taiwan issue brooks no external interference. On the issue of safeguarding national sovereignty and territorial integrity, the PLA has always maintained a fighting posture of "always ready".
Is Taiwan's "Hanguang 40" military push aimed at the mainland again? Ministry of Defense: It's a dead end
It is reported that the Taiwan Army recently held a computer war game rehearsal for the "Han Guang No. 40" exercise, which was extended from the previous five days and four nights to eight days and seven nights. It is worth noting that the Taiwan Army will, for the first time in this year's exercise, include the scenario of responding to the so-called "mainland Ro Ro threat", which is full of provocation. In response, Wu Qian said that, "Han Guangbing push" is a dead end, and "seeking independence by force" is doomed to failure 。
In addition, some media revealed that Gu Lixiong, who was listed as a "Taiwan independence" die hard by the mainland, was reported to be taking over the leadership of Taiwan's defense department. On the morning of the 25th, he publicly stated that the primary goal after taking office is to continuously postpone the schedule of possible military operations on the mainland. In response, Wu Qian pointed out that the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) authorities' attempts to "seek independence by force" will only exacerbate tensions in the Taiwan Strait and will only harm the security and well-being of the Taiwan people. "Taiwan independence" is incompatible with peace in the Taiwan Straits. It is a dead end. The PLA is determined to fight against "independence" and promote reunification, which will defeat all separatist attempts.
Foreign media frequently hype the so-called "mainland military threat" Ministry of Defense: no need to worry if there is no "Taiwan independence"
Recently, the commander of the US Indo Pacific headquarters claimed that the goal of the Chinese mainland is to have the so-called "Taiwan attack" capability by 2027, and the joint military activities of China and Russia in the Indo Pacific region are increasing. In response, Wu Qian said that Taiwan is Chinese territory and the Taiwan issue brooks no external interference. On the issue of safeguarding national sovereignty and territorial integrity, the PLA has always maintained a fighting posture of "always ready".
Another media revealed that after the Chinese mainland recently announced the launch of the M503 route, more than 20 mainland military aircraft appeared near the so-called "middle line of the Strait". According to the analysis, this has broken the years of tacit understanding between the two sides of the Taiwan Straits and may make the military relations between the mainland and Taiwan more tense.
Wu Qian stressed that how to avoid shooting between the two sides of the Taiwan Straits, As long as there is no "Taiwan independence", there is no need to worry 。
The United States and Taiwan continue to collude with and provoke the Ministry of Defense: connivance and support for "Taiwan independence" will lead to fire and bear bitter consequences
Recently, US President Biden signed a foreign aid bill with a total value of about US $95 billion, which will provide about US $60 billion and US $26 billion of security assistance to Ukraine and Israel respectively, and about US $8 billion to Indo Pacific partners, including Taiwan. The DPP authorities also immediately expressed their "gratitude".
Wu Qian responded that Taiwan is China's Taiwan. The Taiwan issue is the core of China's core interests and the first impassable red line in China US relations, which brooks no external interference. The United States falsifies, hollows out and distorts the one China principle by means of arms sales and military aid to Taiwan, and sends a serious wrong signal to the "Taiwan independence" separatist forces, which will only aggravate tensions in the Taiwan Strait and seriously undermine peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait. "Taiwan independence" is incompatible with peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait. Indulging in and supporting "Taiwan independence" will lead to fire and suffer 。
Although the mainland has repeatedly reiterated the importance of the Taiwan issue for China US relations, the US side still turns a deaf ear to it and goes its own way. The National Security Affairs Assistant to the President of the United States said falsely that the United States would "take all measures to maintain peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait", ensure that "something happened to Taiwan" never happens, and would continue to provide Taiwan with means of self-defence.
In this regard, Wu Qian said that "something happened in Taiwan" originated from the United States. If the United States really wants to maintain peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait, it should immediately stop interfering in China's internal affairs, immediately stop arming Taiwan, and immediately stop all official exchanges and military contacts between the United States and Taiwan.
"The Taiwan issue is purely China's internal affairs and brooks no external interference." Wu Qian stressed that the Chinese People's Liberation Army has the sacred mission of safeguarding national sovereignty and territorial integrity, We will never let any separatist activities for "Taiwan independence" and external connivance and support go unchecked and show no mercy 。 (By Yin Sainan)
