BEIJING,????? iptv ?????? April 24 (Xinhua) -- A Chinese defense spokesperson on Thursday denounced Taiwan's Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) for soliciting U.S. support to seek "Taiwan independence."
Zhang Xiaogang, spokesperson for the Ministry of National Defense, made the remarks at a press conference in response to a media inquiry regarding the military collusion between the United States and Taiwan.
"We firmly oppose any form of military collusion between the United States and Taiwan," Zhang said.
To embolden and support "Taiwan independence" separatists is to ruin peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait, Zhang said, urging the U.S. side to stop stirring up troubles on the Taiwan question, earnestly abide by the one-China principle and the stipulations of the three China-U.S. joint communiqués, and deliver on its promise of not supporting "Taiwan independence."
"We solemnly warn the DPP authorities that those who solicit U.S. support for 'Taiwan independence' will be stabbed in the back, and be abandoned as a useless pawn," he said.
