[Ministry of Defense: The Philippines should strictly restrain the dangerous words and deeds of individual politicians] On the afternoon of November 13, the spokesperson of the Ministry of National Defense, Colonel Chen Xi, released news on recent military-related issues. Reporter: According to reports, the Philippine Defense Secretary said in an interview recently that considering that there are 200,000 Filipino expatriates living in Taiwan, the Philippines is preparing for various possible situations. If China attempts to take over Taiwan by force, it will be an option with more losses than gains. Any comment on this?
Chen Xi: The Taiwan issue is purely China's internal affairs. How to resolve it is the Chinese people's own business and no one else is allowed to comment. The remarks of individual Philippine politicians are motivated by political bias and selfish interests, and deviate from the solemn commitment made by the Philippine government to China on the Taiwan issue. China is strongly dissatisfied with and firmly opposed to this. China is unwavering in its determination to safeguard sovereignty and territorial integrity and achieve national reunification. We urge the Philippines to strictly restrain the dangerous words and deeds of individual politicians, earnestly abide by the one-China principle, and take practical actions to safeguard the overall situation of China-Philippines relations.
