At the regular press conference of China's Ministry of National Defense on the 27th, spokesperson Wu Qian pointed out that Lai Ching-te and his ilk, in their vain attempt to tamper with history and split the country, will surely face the judgment of history and severe punishment under the law.

　　According to reports, at an on-island celebration marking the centenary of the Whampoa Military Academy, Taiwan region leader Lai Ching-te said he would not accept that "the first battle is the final battle." In addition, Lai Ching-te has on multiple occasions propagated fallacies such as "the two sides of the strait are not subordinate to each other." That day, a reporter asked the spokesperson for comment on this.

　　Wu Qian said that the Whampoa Military Academy is a historical memory shared by all Chinese people, recording the bloody course of national rejuvenation. The Whampoa spirit is the spirit of "patriotism and revolution." Whampoa alumni have always had a glorious history and fine tradition of patriotism and revolution, and are an important force for advancing national reunification and national rejuvenation. Lai Ching-te and his ilk, in their vain attempt to tamper with history and split the country, will surely face the judgment of history and severe punishment under the law.

　　Wu Qian pointed out that there is only one China in the world, Taiwan is an inalienable part of China's territory, the government of the People's Republic of China is the **legitimate government representing all of China, and the one-China principle is a universal consensus of the international community. No matter how the DPP authorities distort and deny it, they cannot change this basic fact, nor can they sever the blood ties between compatriots on both sides of the strait.

　　Wu Qian stressed: "Every time the 'Taiwan independence' separatist forces provoke us, our countermeasures advance one step further. This is the progressive process and prelude to the final resolution of the Taiwan question. In crushing 'Taiwan independence' armed forces, the PLA has always been like catching a turtle in a jar—it is a sure catch."

　　Another reporter asked: according to reports, the Japanese government has published a draft plan to evacuate residents of Okinawa and the Sakishima Islands to various prefectures in Kyushu and Yamaguchi Prefecture. Some analysts believe the Japanese government formulated the relevant plan to "respond" to a so-called "Taiwan contingency." Not long ago, the Chinese ambassador to Japan said that "if Japan ties itself to the chariot of splitting China, the Japanese people will be dragged into a pit of fire." What is the spokesperson's comment?

　　Wu Qian pointed out that Taiwan is China's Taiwan, and Taiwan's affairs are none of Japan's business. The Taiwan question is the core of China's core interests, bears on the political foundation of China-Japan relations, and is a red line that must not be crossed. China opposes Japan's use of the so-called "Taiwan contingency" to hype up regional tensions.

　　Wu Qian said that the greatest threat to peace in the Taiwan Strait today is the separatist acts of "Taiwan independence" and the connivance and support given to them by external forces. Japan once colonized Taiwan for a long period and committed heinous historical crimes against the Chinese people, and it should especially reflect on itself and act and speak with caution. China urges Japan to earnestly abide by the spirit of the four China-Japan political documents and the commitments it has made to date, and to stop using the Taiwan question to provoke confrontation.

　　The spokesperson also stressed that the one-China principle is a universal consensus of the international community and a basic norm of international relations. No matter who or what force dares to interfere in China's internal affairs or obstruct China's reunification, they will surely receive a head-on blow from the more than 1.4 billion Chinese people.
