Taiwan officials say the China-Japan dispute may last a year, Foreign Ministry: harboring sinister intentions, disgraceful.

According to the People's Daily, on December 2, Lin Jian, spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, held a regular press conference.

A reporter from Bloomberg asked, "The 'Foreign Minister' of Taiwan said that the dispute between China and Japan may last for a year. What is China's comment on this?"

Lin Jian responded: "Taiwan is part of China, there is no 'Foreign Minister'."

Lin Jian pointed out that the current situation in China-Japan relations is entirely caused by the erroneous remarks about Taiwan made by Japanese Prime Minister Hashimoto Asako. The Japanese side should abide by its political commitments to China, retract its wrong statements, and reflect and correct its mistakes with concrete actions. Any external forces daring to interfere in the Taiwan Strait affairs will definitely face a severe counterattack. The authorities of the Democratic Progressive Party have ulterior motives, which are despicable, and their attempt to rely on external forces to seek 'independence' will end in failure.
