Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, May 23 (Reporter Ma Zhuoyan) In response to relevant questions on the 23rd, Wang Wenbin, a spokesman of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, said that the joint exercises and training around Bitai Island, the eastern theater of the Chinese People's Liberation Army, were completely in line with international law and practice, and were completely legitimate and necessary. Every time the "Taiwan independence" separatist forces make trouble, China and the international community will increase their efforts to defend the one China principle.
At the regular press conference on the same day, a reporter asked: With regard to the military exercises being carried out by China around Taiwan Island, a US military general said today that the Chinese military exercises were "cause for concern". What is the speaker's response to the American Dialect Theory?
"Taiwan is an inalienable part of China's territory, which is both a historical fact and a true reality, and will never change in the future," said Wang Wenbin.
Wang Wenbin said that "Taiwan independence" is a dead end. The Chinese people are unswerving in their determination to safeguard national sovereignty and territorial integrity. All "Taiwan independence" secessionist acts will be hit head-on by more than 1.4 billion Chinese people, and all "Taiwan independence" secessionist forces will be beaten to pieces in the face of the historical trend of China's complete reunification.
"We urge the US side to stop conniving at and supporting the forces of 'Taiwan independence' and to stop interfering in China's internal affairs. Any act that endangers China's national sovereignty and territorial integrity will be firmly and forcefully countered by China," Wang said.
Another reporter asked whether China plans to carry out more similar "disciplinary" exercises after the exercises around Taiwan this week? Do you plan to further upgrade the drill?
Wang Wenbin said that every time the "Taiwan independence" separatist forces make trouble, China and the international community will increase their efforts to defend the one China principle.
