The Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council held a regular press conference today (15 July). At the meeting, a reporter asked: According to British media reports, manufacturers from the United States and Britain and other seven countries have secretly helped Taiwan build submarines, and the relevant countries have provided export licenses for the sale of key components to Taiwan. Any comments on this?

In this regard, spokesman Ma Xiaoguang said: We resolutely oppose any country selling weapons and carrying out military ties to the Taiwan region, and oppose any words and deeds that encourage the "Taiwan independence" separatist forces to "seek independence by force." We urge all countries to fully understand the high sensitivity of Taiwan-related issues and the serious harm of "Taiwan independence" separatist activities, and stop sending any wrong signals to the "Taiwan independence" separatist forces, so as not to harm peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait. No one should underestimate our strong determination, firm will and strong ability to safeguard national sovereignty and territorial integrity. The DPP authorities' attempt to collude with external forces and "seek independence by force" will only aggravate the tension and turmoil in the Taiwan Strait situation and will certainly suffer complete defeat.
