Embassy Spokesperson on British MP's Visit to Taiwan

2025-01-13 18:00

Question: It is reported that Tom Tugendhat, an MP and anti-China figure, is currently visiting Taiwan. What is the your comment?

Embassy Spokesperson: This British politician had been deliberately targeting the Chinese community in the UK and creating trouble to undermine China-UK relations when he was a government official. What is he doing in Taiwan now? His sole purpose is to instigate "Taiwan independence" separatist activities, undermine cross-Strait peace and stability, and create obstacles to the development of China-UK relations. We strongly condemn this.

There is only one China in the world, and Taiwan is an inalienable part of China's territory. The Taiwan question is purely China's internal affair. We will take all necessary measures to firmly defeat separatist attempts for “Taiwan independence” and external interference. No one should underestimate the firm resolve, strong will and great capability of the Chinese people to defend state sovereignty and territorial integrity.

It must be pointed out that in the 1972 China-UK joint communiqué on the agreement on an exchange of ambassadors, the UK government clearly acknowledged the position of the Chinese government that Taiwan is a province of the People's Republic of China. We urge the UK government to earnestly abide by the one-China principle, handle Taiwan-related issues prudently, and rein in relevant British MPs before they violate the diplomatic commitment made by the UK government on behalf of the country and meddle in China's internal affairs.
