Chen Binhua, a spokesman for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, said on the 1st that the US arms sales to the Taiwan region of China were a serious violation of the Three Communiqués, especially the provisions of the August 17 communique, we are firmly opposed to this. The US side should take concrete actions to fulfill its serious political commitment not to support“Taiwan independence”, stop arming Taiwan and stop sending the wrong signal to the“Taiwan independence” separatist forces.
A reporter asked: On November 30, the United States announced a plan to sell arms to Taiwan worth US $385 million. The DPP authorities immediately expressed their gratitude. Can you comment on this? Chen Binhua made the above response.
Chen Bin-hua said that telling the William Lai administration that buying weapons could not buy security, that “Protection fees” could not protect “Taiwan independence”, that “Relying on the United States to seek independence” was doomed to failure, and that attempting to “Seek independence with military force” would only make the Taiwanese soldiers dangerous, and ultimately self-destruct. The Taiwan issue is at the core of China’s core interests. No one and no force should underestimate the strong will and ability of the Chinese people to safeguard national sovereignty and territorial integrity.
