國防部：“以武謀獨”只會將臺灣推向兵兇戰危的極度危險境地
MND:"Seeking independence by force" only pushes Taiwan towards an extremely dangerous situation of war
2月29日下午，國防部舉行例行記者會，國防部新聞局副局長、國防部新聞發言人張曉剛大校答記者問。
記者：據報道，臺灣將編列133.7億元新臺幣跨年度預算，向美采購500枚“毒刺”導彈。賴清德近日與美國“哈德遜研究所”人員交流時宣稱，美政府推動對臺軍售常態化，協助臺提升自我防衛力量，臺將持續強化不對稱戰力。請問對此有何評論？
It is reported that Taiwan will spend NT$ 13.37 billion from its multi-year budget to purchase 500 "Stinger" air defense missiles. When meeting with personnel from the US Hudson Institute, Lai Ching-te claimed that the US government continued to promote the normalization of arms sales to Taiwan, allowing the island to enhance its self defense capabilities, and Taiwan would bolster its asymmetric warfare capabilities. What’s your comment on this?
張曉剛：首先要指出的是，花老百姓血汗錢購買多少武器，也改變不了臺灣是中國的臺灣的基本事實，更無法阻擋祖國統一的歷史大勢。我們正告民進黨當局：“以武謀獨”沒有出路，只會將臺灣推向兵兇戰危的極度危險境地。
First I want to point out that no matter how many weapons the DPP buys with the hard-earned money of the taxpayers in Taiwan, it could never change the basic fact that Taiwan is China's Taiwan, let alone stopping the overwhelming trend towards national reunification. Our message to the DPP authorities is that seeking independence by force will lead nowhere. It will only push Taiwan towards an extremely dangerous situation of war.
美方一再違反一個中國原則和中美三個聯合公報，特別是“八一七公報”規定，違背在臺灣問題上作出的政治承諾，不斷對臺售武，加強美臺軍事勾連，嚴重侵害中國主權安全，助長“臺獨”氣焰，破壞臺海和平穩定。中國人民解放軍將采取一切必要措施，堅決粉碎任何形式的“臺獨”分裂圖謀，堅決捍衛國家主權和領土完整，堅定維護臺海地區和平穩定。
The US side has repeatedly violated the one-China principle and the three China-US joint communiqués, especially the August 17th Communiqué, and violated its political commitment to China on the Taiwan question by continuing its arms sales to Taiwan and strengthening military collusion with Taiwan. These acts have seriously undermined China's sovereignty and security, emboldened the "Taiwan independence" separatist forces, and harmed peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait. The PLA will take all necessary measures to resolutely smash any "Taiwan independence" separatist plot, firmly safeguard national sovereignty and territorial integrity, as well as peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait.
