New Delhi: In a strong reaction, Taiwanese Foreign Minister Joseph Wu on Wednesday called on the Chinese mission to “get lost” after the latter called on Indian media to follow the “One China” policy. . “India is the world’s largest democracy with a vibrant press and freedom-loving people. But it seems that communist China hopes to march to the subcontinent by imposing censorship.”
“Indian friends in Taiwan will have an answer: GET LOST! JW.” The tweet was signed with initials: JW or Joseph Wu, the Foreign Minister of Taiwan.
Before National Taiwan Day on October 10, the Chinese mission in Delhi wrote to the Indian media and asked them not to refer to Taiwan as a “nation”. The Chinese mission in the letter said, “I would like to remind our friends in the media that there is only one China in the world” and that “the Government of the People’s Republic of China is the only legitimate government that represents all of China.”
He added that “Taiwan is an inalienable part of China’s territory. All countries that have diplomatic relations with China should firmly honor their commitment to the one-China policy, which is also the long-standing official position of the Indian government.”
The letter came hours after major national newspapers in India ran a full-page ad in which Zee Media was running a program on Taiwan’s national day. The show aired at 7 pm on Wednesday and will return to air on Thursday at 5:30 pm.
The Chinese mission letter also hoped that “the Indian media can stick to the Indian government’s position on the Taiwan issue and not violate the one-China principle,” calling on the Indian media not to refer to Taiwan as a “country” or “The ROC”. ”Or its president of Taiwan, Tsai ing-wen, as president, as he sends” the wrong signals to the general public. “
It was on October 10, 2011 when the Wuchang Uprising began which led to the end of the Qing Dynasty of China and the establishment of the ROC. This day is marked in Taiwan and this year will be celebrated amid the tensions between China and Taiwan.
