[Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council: The Taiwan issue is China’s internal affair and does not tolerate any external interference] On November 11, the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council held a regular press conference. A reporter asked questions about the discussion between China and the United States on Taiwan-related issues during APEC. Spokesperson Zhang Han said that the Taiwan issue is China's internal affair and does not tolerate any external interference. Only by resolutely opposing "Taiwan independence" separatism and adhering to the one-China principle can peace across the Taiwan Strait be guaranteed. Zhang Han emphasized that Taiwan is part of China, and the one-China principle and the three Sino-US joint communiques are the political foundation of Sino-US relations. The DPP authorities' "relying on foreign countries to seek independence" will only make Taiwan a pawn of external forces, and it will eventually be unable to escape the fate of becoming an "abandoned child".
