In a bold statement, the Chinese mainland has declared that attempts at \"Taiwan independence\" are destined to fail. 📰
On Monday, Wu Qian, spokesperson for the Ministry of National Defense, emphasized that separatist activities seeking independence for the island of Taiwan won't succeed. 🎤
Responding to media inquiries, Wu highlighted that the recent drills by the Eastern Theater Command of the Chinese People's Liberation Army were aimed at cracking down on separatist forces, not targeting Taiwan compatriots. 🛡️
\"We will continue to strive for peaceful reunification with the greatest sincerity and the utmost effort,\" Wu stated. \"But we will never promise to renounce the use of force and will not leave any room for 'Taiwan independence.'\" ✊
The command organized drills involving the army, navy, air force, and rocket force in the Taiwan Strait and areas to the north, south, and east of the island of Taiwan. These exercises showcase the PLA's commitment to safeguarding national sovereignty and unity. 🚢✈️
The message is clear: efforts to divide are unacceptable, but peace and unity remain the ultimate goals. 🌏🤝
