DPRK Ambassador to China Publishes Article


Pyongyang, August 24 (KCNA) -- The DPRK ambassador to the People's Republic of China on August 24 made public the following article titled "There is only one China in its land":


The U.S. attempt to persistently interfere in the Taiwan issue, China's internal affairs, is going beyond the red-line to further aggravate the situation in the Asia-Pacific region than ever before.


The U.S. clearly recognized that Taiwan is part of the People's Republic of China through the three joint communiques adopted in the past, but what the international community witnessed is the true picture of the U.S. opposing and denying it.


This is proved by the fact that the U.S. is stubbornly resorting to the moves to manipulate "two Chinas" by politically and militarily shielding the "Taiwanese independence" separatist forces and staging dangerous military drills around Taiwan targeting China, throwing the world public into confusion as if China's "invasion of Taiwan" is imminent.


Recently the U.S. administration announced "Weapons Aid Package" for providing Taiwan with weapons worth 345 million U.S. dollars and allowed the "vice-president" of Taiwan to "pass" through the U.S. And the tripartite summit talks held among the U.S., Japan and south Korean puppet regime adopted a document containing the strong opposition to the unilateral attempt to change the situation in the Indo-Pacific region so as to incite the anti-Chinese atmosphere. The facts clearly and obviously show who is the root cause of the deteriorated situation of Taiwan Strait.


As already specified, resolution 2758 of the UN General Assembly adopted in October 1971 made it clear that Taiwan is an inseparable part of the People’s Republic of China.


The U.S. illegal acts of regarding the issue of Taiwan as a lever for checking China while wantonly violating the UN Charter and international law on respect for the right to self-determination of a sovereign state are quite contrary to the trend of the times and the desire of mankind for equity, justice and peace.


Then, why is the U.S. persistently using the "Taiwan card" to push the regional situation to an extreme phase of instability?


It is the U.S. sinister intention to internationalize the Taiwan issue and build a pretext for collective moves to restrain China for carrying out the Asia-Pacific strategy and thus weaken its energy to quench strategic influence of China, a socialist power.


The military and political situation in the Taiwan Strait is now inching to the brink of a war due to the U.S. vicious anti-China confrontation moves.


No one can remain a passive onlooker to the robber who ran into the house with a knife.


The peace and security of the Taiwan Strait should be safeguarded by the People's Republic of China, the master of Taiwan island, not by outside unbidden guests.


The Chinese People's Liberation Army has staged various kinds of military drills one after another in the waters and the sky around Taiwan. This is a legitimate military action for self-defence to firmly defend the sovereignty and national interests of China.


The 1.4 billion Chinese people's determination and will to accomplish the sacred cause of national reunification at any cost is getting stronger in direct proportion to the U.S. and its followers' frantic interference in the Taiwan issue.


If the U.S. persistently promotes division and infringes upon other's sovereignty with illegal double standards and opts for the way of confrontation between camps and wrecking peace in disregard of the above fact, all of them will serve as a prelude to the U.S. unpleasant future.


The Democratic People's Republic of Korea bitterly denounces the U.S. and its followers for extremely aggravating the situation in the Taiwan Strait through irresponsible and unilateral forcible measures and strongly supports all the measures taken by China to achieve the national reunification on the principle of one China.


Taiwan is a part of China forever and there will always be one China on the land of the Chinese nation. -0-
