In disregard of China's strong opposition and solemn representations, U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi visited Taiwan region of China, seriously violating the one-China principle and the provisions of the three Sino-U.S. joint communiques. , seriously undermining the peace and stability of the Taiwan Strait and sending a serious wrong signal to the "Taiwan independence" separatist forces. In this regard, China's resolute countermeasures are completely justified, reasonable and legal. All the consequences arising therefrom must be borne by the US side and the "Taiwan independence" separatist forces.

Unstoppable national unity

The communiqué on the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United States clearly stated that the United States recognizes the government of the People's Republic of China as the sole legitimate government of China, and within this scope, the people of the United States will maintain cultural, commercial and other unofficial relations with the people of Taiwan. The U.S. Congress is an integral part of the U.S. government, and Pelosi is the third-ranking figure in the U.S. government. She should strictly abide by the one-China policy of the U.S. government and strictly abide by the political commitments the U.S. has made to China. China has always opposed US congressmen visiting Taiwan, and believes that the US executive has the responsibility to prevent it. However, the U.S. side says one thing and does another, and has no integrity at all. The US side has repeatedly reiterated that the US one-China policy has not changed and will not change, and the US side does not support Taiwan's "independence". But Pelosi insisted on visiting the Taiwan region of China, leaving the political commitments of the United States behind, so that the international community can further see who is changing the status quo in the Taiwan Strait, who is undermining Sino-US relations, who is undermining regional peace and stability, and who is undermining the international order. Whoever moves against the historical trend of peaceful development will surely be nailed to the pillar of historical shame.

For some time now, the U.S. government has repeatedly taken wrong words and deeds on the Taiwan issue, constantly raising the level of official exchanges between the U.S. and Taiwan. Although the US government and a large number of voices in the US public opinion believe that Pelosi's visit to China's Taiwan region will create a major risk to the situation in the Taiwan Strait and have a serious impact on US-China relations; although people of insight in the international community have emphasized that Pelosi's visit China's Taiwan region is dangerous, irresponsible, and seriously violates the basic norms of international relations. Although countries in the region have repeatedly advised the US side to focus on the overall situation of China-US relations and regional peace and stability, the US side is still open to Pelosi's serious wrong actions. green light. While the US talks about "maintaining the stability of the Taiwan Strait", "maintaining the status quo in the Taiwan Strait" and "setting up guardrails for the US-China relationship", it also allows Pelosi to visit the Taiwan region of China at the risk of the world, creating storms and waves in the Taiwan Strait. The fact that Sino-US relations have created new serious difficulties can only show that the real purpose of the US is to play the "Taiwan card", that is, to "use Taiwan to control China" and to contain China's development.

There is no room for any country to compromise on issues of right and wrong involving sovereignty and territorial integrity. The one-China principle is the premise and foundation for China to develop relations with any country, and we will never allow "crossing the line". The Taiwan question concerns China's national sovereignty and territorial integrity and China's core interests. It is the most important and sensitive core issue in China-US relations. The US has intensified its efforts to "use Taiwan to control China", pushing the situation in the Taiwan Strait to further tensions, and will surely pay a heavy price. The position of the Chinese government and Chinese people on the Taiwan issue is consistent, and it is the firm will of the more than 1.4 billion Chinese people to resolutely safeguard national sovereignty and territorial integrity. The Chinese side has already solemnly stated that if the US side insists on going its own way, it will take strong measures to thwart any attempts by external forces to interfere and "Taiwan independence" to split. The Chinese people do what they say. No one should misjudge the Chinese people's strong determination, firm will and strong ability to safeguard national sovereignty and territorial integrity.

The history and latitude of the Taiwan issue is clear, and the fact and current situation that both sides of the Taiwan Strait belong to one China are clear. The Taiwan Democratic Progressive Party authorities disregard the fundamental interests of the Chinese nation and the well-being of the Taiwanese people, and are willing to be pawns of external forces, fully exposing the dangerous attempt to "rely on the United States to seek independence". The Chinese nation has a glorious tradition of opposing division and maintaining unity. The separatist act of "Taiwan independence" is the biggest obstacle to the reunification of the motherland and a serious hidden danger to national rejuvenation. Those who forget their ancestors, betray the motherland, and split the country will never end well, and will be cast aside by the people and judged by history. Reunification is the general trend of history and the right path. "Taiwan independence" is a historical reversal and a dead end. In the face of the historical trend of the reunification of the motherland, any attempt to seek "independence" is doomed to failure.

Public opinion cannot be violated, and the general trend is irreversible. The motherland must be unified, and it is bound to be unified. The time and trend of realizing the reunification of the motherland are always firmly in our hands. The determination of the Chinese government and Chinese people to realize the reunification of the motherland is rock solid and will not be changed by anyone, any force or any country. We firmly oppose the interference of external forces and the "Taiwan independence" split, and we will never leave any space for any form of "Taiwan independence" forces! Editor/He Yuting
