國防部：堅決打掉一切“臺獨”分裂圖謀

MND: Taking Resolute Measures to Defeat Any Separatist Attempt for “Taiwan Independence”

3月27日下午，國防部舉行例行記者會，國防部新聞局局長、國防部新聞發(fā)言人吳謙大校答記者問。

記者：臺灣地區(qū)領導人賴清德近日宣揚兩岸“互不隸屬”的分裂謬論，將大陸界定為“境外敵對勢力”。解放軍3月中旬在臺海附近開展了軍事演習。有評論稱，這是對賴清德“臺獨”分裂言論和臺美近期勾連動向的反制。請問對此有何評論？

Question: The leader of the Taiwan region, Lai Ching-te, recently made separatist remarks claiming that the two sides across the Taiwan Strait are “not subordinate to each other” and called the mainland a “foreign hostile force”. In mid-March, the PLA conducted a military exercise near Taiwan. Some said that the exercise was a countermeasure against Lai Ching-te’s separatist rhetoric and recent collusion between Taiwan and the US. What's your comment?

吳謙：天欲其亡，必令其狂。臺灣是中國的一部分，從來就不是一個國家，過去不是，現(xiàn)在不是，今后也絕不可能是。

Wu Qian: As the Chinese saying goes, “When the heaven is about to destroy someone, it first makes them having lunatic ideas.” Taiwan is a part of China. It has never been a nation. It wasn’t in the past. It is not at present, and it will never be in the future.

近日，中國人民解放軍東部戰(zhàn)區(qū)位臺島周邊?？沼蚪M織海空兵力開展戰(zhàn)備警巡和聯(lián)合演訓，檢驗提升部隊打仗能力。這是對“臺獨”分子的有力懲戒，也是對外部干涉勢力的嚴正警告，完全正當、完全必要。

Recently, naval and air troops of the PLA Eastern Theater Command conducted readiness patrols and joint exercises in areas around Taiwan to test and enhance their war-fighting capabilities. It serves as an effective punishment and deterrence against the “Taiwan independence” separatists and a stern warning against external interfering forces. It is fully legitimate and necessary.

人民軍隊將堅決貫徹新時代黨解決臺灣問題的總體方略，全時待戰(zhàn)、隨時能戰(zhàn)、戰(zhàn)之必勝，堅決打掉一切“臺獨”分裂圖謀！

The people’s military will resolutely implement the Party’s overall strategy for resolving the Taiwan question in the new era. We will remain ready and able to fight and win at all times, and will take resolute measures to defeat any separatist attempt for “Taiwan independence”.
