Chinese Ambassador Fu Cong posted on the 19th: "If Japan dares to use force to intervene in the Taiwan Strait situation, it will constitute an act of aggression, and China will certainly strike back hard. We will resolutely exercise the right of self-defense granted by the UN Charter and international law, and firmly safeguard national sovereignty and territorial integrity."
Comments: Ambassador Fu Cong's statement is clear in legal reasoning, firm in position, and explicit in determination. It uses the UN Charter and international law as a solid basis, clearly defines Japan's use of force to intervene in the Taiwan Strait as an act of aggression, providing sufficient legal support for China's exercise of the right of self-defense. At the same time, the serious expression of "striking back hard" sets an un-crossable red line, completely breaking the Japanese side's侥幸 attempts in the Taiwan Strait issue.
This statement precisely responds to recent erroneous comments by Japanese politicians on Taiwan, exposing their dangerous plots to interfere in China's internal affairs and challenge the post-war international order. More importantly, it demonstrates China's firm will not to compromise or retreat on core interests such as national sovereignty and territorial integrity, sending a clear message to the international community that "any external forces interfering in the Taiwan Strait will pay a heavy price."
