Today (December 3), at the regular press conference of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, a U.S. journalist asked the spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs about the U.S. bill related to Taiwan signed by President Trump.

???????? Bloomberg reporter: President Trump signed a law requiring the U.S. Department of State to regularly assess U.S.-Taiwan relations and find measures to deepen the relationship. What is the Ministry's comment on this?

???????? Spokesperson Lin Jian of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs: China firmly opposes any official exchanges between the United States and China's Taiwan region. This position has always been consistent and clear.

The Taiwan issue is the core of the core interests of China, and it is the first red line that cannot be crossed in Sino-U.S. relations. The One-China Principle is the political foundation of Sino-U.S. relations. The U.S. government made a clear commitment in the "Sino-U.S. Joint Communiqué on the Establishment of Diplomatic Relations," stating, "The United States acknowledges the Government of the People's Republic of China as the sole legitimate government of China. Within this framework, the American people will maintain cultural, commercial, and other non-official relations with the people of Taiwan." The Chinese side urges the U.S. side to truly abide by the One-China Principle and the three Sino-U.S. joint communiqués, to handle the Taiwan issue with great caution, to stop the official exchanges between the U.S. and Taiwan, and not to send any wrong signals to the "Taiwan independence" separatist forces.

[Witty] Comment briefly: Ten days ago, Trump still solemnly stated during his call with China that the U.S. understands the importance of the Taiwan issue to China. But today, he hastily signed the "Taiwan Assurance Implementation Act." Such capricious behavior exposes the hypocrisy and untrustworthiness of U.S. politicians. The U.S. action is clearly playing with fire on the Taiwan issue, seriously violating the One-China Principle and the provisions of the three Sino-U.S. joint communiqués, and is a crude interference in China's internal affairs.

The U.S. attempts to deepen U.S.-Taiwan relations through such so-called "laws" and provide support to the "Taiwan independence" forces, which is nothing but a foolish fantasy. The Taiwan issue is purely China's internal affair, concerning China's sovereignty and territorial integrity. No matter what evil laws the U.S. implements regarding Taiwan, it cannot change the fact that Taiwan is part of China, nor can it shake our determination and will to unify Taiwan.
