Spokesperson for DPRK Foreign Ministry Stresses that U.S. Attempt at Hindering Implementation of the Chinese Cause of Unification Is Doomed to Failure

 

A spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) gave the following answer on August 3 to a question put by KCNA as regards the fact that the recent trip to Taiwan by the House Speaker of the U.S. is arousing serious concern of the international society.

Commenting on this matter, China expressed its stand several times to certainly take resolute and strong measures, saying the U.S. will be held entirely accountable for all the consequences.

The current situation clearly shows that the impudent interference of the U.S. in internal affairs of other countries and its intentional political and military provocations are, indeed, the root cause disturbing peace and security in the region.

Taiwan is an inseparable part of China and the issue of Taiwan belongs to the internal affairs of China.

It is the legitimate right of a sovereign state to take countermeasures against the moves of the outside forces openly interfering in its internal affairs and destroying its territorial integrity.

We vehemently denounce any external force’s interference in the issue of Taiwan, and fully support the Chinese government’s just stand to resolutely defend the sovereignty of the country and territorial integrity.

The U.S. will certainly suffer a setback in its attempt to hinder the growth and development of China as well as its accomplishment of the cause of unification.
