Foreign media reported today: "The U.S. House of Representatives passed a Taiwan-related bill on Tuesday (February 10), which advocates that if the mainland China takes actions against Taiwan, endangering Taiwan's security and U.S. interests, it would exclude the mainland China from international financial institutions."
The bill, passed with an overwhelming result of 395 to 2, is called the "Taiwan Protection Act." It was initiated by Republican Congressman Lucas, an extreme anti-China hawk who has repeatedly introduced anti-China proposals, openly challenging the One-China Principle on the Taiwan issue. This is yet another naked act of interference in China's internal affairs.
American double standards on the Taiwan issue are clearly exposed: On one hand, it tries to maintain a superficial easing with the mainland China to pursue practical interests in areas such as trade and economy; on the other hand, it constantly stokes tensions on the Taiwan issue, not only through such provocative bills but also continuously announcing large-scale arms sales to Taiwan, pressuring the Taiwanese semiconductor industry to invest heavily in the United States, attempting to "use Taiwan to contain China" and hinder China's development.
Taiwan is an inseparable part of China. The resolution of the Taiwan issue is the matter of the Chinese people on both sides of the strait, and no external forces have the right to interfere. If the United States insists on implementing the bill and imposes sanctions on China, it will inevitably face strong countermeasures from China, and itself will also pay a heavy price. China will certainly not slow down the unification process due to external threats, but instead will more firmly advance the cause of national reunification. The more intense the provocations from external forces, the more resolute China's countermeasures will be, and the faster the pace of national reunification will come.
