Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council: Taiwan’s participation in APEC-related activities must comply with the One-China Principle and the relevant provisions of the Memorandum of Understanding-Xinhua
Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, Sept. 30 (Reporters Zha Wenye, Shi Longhong, Liu Huan) Ma Xiaoguang, spokesperson for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, pointed out at a regular press conference on the 30th that the region of Taiwan from China will be sent to participate as a regional economy. For APEC-related activities, APEC itself has a long-term practice. Our position is very clear, that is, it must comply with the one-China principle and the relevant provisions of the APEC Memorandum of Understanding. Any trick and scheme that seizes the opportunity to seek “independence” can only be insulted.
A reporter asked who affected by the epidemic, this year’s APEC meeting will be held by video. Taiwan has assured the foreign affairs department that it will actively endeavor to have Tsai Ing-wen participate in the leadership summit. Can you comment on this? Ma Xiaoguang made the above comments while answering questions.
In response to the recent replacement of the back panel of the Taiwan Continental Affairs Council Press Center, the original map of the mainland disappeared and Taiwan was left alone, and its motto changed from “peace and goodwill, people first” to “peace, reciprocity, democracy and dialogue, “said Ma Xiaoguang in response to the question, This kind of small action does not deserve comment. First, no matter how it is changed, the fact that the mainland and Taiwan belong to the same China and Taiwan is part of China cannot be changed. Second, “peace and goodwill, put the people first”, even this kind of claim is no longer, I don’t know what the MAC is going to do.
Taiwan’s transportation department recently discussed adding six cargo destinations on the mainland, but they were canceled due to an obstruction by the Taiwan Mainland Affairs Council. In this regard, Ma Xiaoguang said that since February 10, relevant parties in Taiwan have unilaterally suspended other cross-strait air passenger flights, except to and from Beijing, Shanghai (Pudong and Hongqiao), Xiamen and Chengdu. Today, the continent has achieved important strategic results in fighting the epidemic, and the demand for cross-strait personnel exchanges and economic and commercial exchanges has increased considerably. The DPP authorities must stop political manipulation and respond to the needs of businesses and individuals.
Chen Shizhong, head of Taiwan’s health and welfare department, recently declared that he would not buy vaccines from the mainland, sparking controversy. Ma Xiaoguang said in response to the investigation that this person’s comments once again demonstrated that, in addition to using the epidemic to instigate confrontation, conduct political operations and seek self-interest, the DPP authorities have never cared about welfare. , the health and safety of the people of Taiwan.
