The German Foreign Minister has made inflammatory remarks against us! On August 17, according to foreign media reports, the German Foreign Minister, during his visit to Japan and Indonesia, directly pointed to us for provocation. German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock claimed that first, China and North Korea support Russia's "illegal aggression" in the war against Ukraine, and now it is necessary to promote a just peace to safeguard the fundamental security interests of Ukraine and Europe.

Secondly, China's increasingly "aggressive" actions in the Taiwan Strait, as well as in the East China Sea and the South China Sea, also have an impact on us in Europe. We are committed to establishing an international order based on rules, which is enforceable by law and binding on all, to jointly oppose this phenomenon. Thirdly, in terms of the economy, we are also facing significant challenges, as China is challenging our economy with trade practices that are "unfair and distort the market."

Evidently, at the beginning of his Asian trip, the German Foreign Minister directly criticized us in at least three aspects, and his attitude towards us is very impolite. However, the German Foreign Minister's statements are not only absurd but also provocative. Regarding the Ukraine-Russia issue, the so-called accusation that China supports Russia's war is completely baseless. Germany's criticism of us without regard for facts only indicates one thing: Germany wants to impose its own position on us, but we will certainly not accept it.

Moreover, his comments on the Taiwan issue and the South China Sea issue are even more distorted and lack basic fairness. The Taiwan issue is an internal affair, and the German Foreign Minister should be cautious in his words and actions. In dealing with the dispute between China and the Philippines, we have been sufficiently restrained. As an external country, as a defeated country in World War II, Germany is becoming increasingly active in regional affairs far away from its borders. What exactly does Germany want? Facing its own economic problems, the German Foreign Minister is blaming us, but this is of no help in solving its own issues. Obviously, the German Foreign Minister is full of unfriendly behavior toward us. If Germany engages in actions that harm our interests, we will inevitably take measures to counteract.
