US must not play with fire on Taiwan matter
The Chinese Defense Ministry reaffirmed at Thursday's press conference its stance that the question of Taiwan's status is China's internal issue that the nation should solve without foreign interference.
Beijing urged the United States to "stop playing with fire" on the matter and stressed that the People's Liberation Army (PLA) is ready to defend the country's sovereignty and territorial integrity if needed. The department also confirmed that State Councilor and Defense Minister Wei Fenghe had a telephone call with his Russian counterpart Sergey Shoygu during which they discussed common concerns and regional issues.
The ministry's statement came after US Secretary of State Antony Blinken accused China of refusing to maintain the status quo and speeding up the process of reunification, adding that Beijing also rejected Washington's offer to work on the issue together. #freespeech
