China draws a red line! Singapore's Straits Times reported on the evening of September 10: "On the eve of the Beijing Xiangshan Forum, Chinese Defense Minister Dong Jun had his first video call with US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin, stating that any attempt to 'use military force to assist Taiwan independence' or 'use Taiwan to contain China' and interference will be thwarted. It is absolutely impossible to contain, deter, or interfere with China. This is the first high-level military exchange between the United States and China during President Trump's second term."
The "September 3rd Military Parade" has just showcased new equipment and strategic strength, providing solid confidence for China's position. Minister Dong Jun's statement clearly demonstrates the confidence of a major power and its bottom-line thinking. In recent years, the United States has frequently played the "Taiwan card," continuously selling arms to Taiwan and using it as a pawn to contain China, yet ignoring that the Taiwan issue is the core of the core interests of China, the first un-crossable red line in Sino-US relations.
China's attitude is clear and firm: China is determined to safeguard national sovereignty and territorial integrity. The Taiwan is China's Taiwan, and no external forces are allowed to interfere. Minister Dong Jun's warning is not only a direct response to the US interference, but also further demonstration of China's determination to protect its core interests after the September 3rd parade.
