At a press conference on Wednesday, Zhu Fenglian, spokesperson for China\'s State Council Taiwan Affairs Office, delivered a strong message to the Philippines regarding its approach to the Taiwan question.
In response to media reports that the Philippines had eased restrictions on interactions with officials from the island of Taiwan, Zhu warned that such actions send dangerous signals to "Taiwan secessionists." He stressed that any official exchanges between countries with diplomatic ties with China and China\'s Taiwan region are firmly opposed.
By calling for strict adherence to the one-China principle, these remarks serve as a reminder to avoid playing with fire on a sensitive diplomatic issue. This update reflects the ongoing challenges in international relations and underscores why stability and mutual respect are vital for a rapidly changing Asia. 😊
