Following Lithuania's provocation of the "one-China" bottom line on the Taiwan issue, another small country, Slovenia, jumped out. On January 17, local time, Sri Lankan Prime Minister Jansa threatened in an interview with Indian media that Slovenia is currently considering the establishment of a "representative office" with Taiwan. In the interview, Yang Sha always referred to the Taiwan region as "country" and also expressed regret over China's opposition to Taiwan's accession to the WHO. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian expressed "deep shock and strong opposition" to this.
The continuous wanton provocation of China by small countries has become an unimaginable international phenomenon in the world today. Among them, in addition to the secret encouragement of other big countries behind them, there is also an important reason, that is, these small countries have distorted China's "Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence", especially the principle of non-interference in the internal affairs of other countries that China has always advocated. It is true that horses are good to be ridden, and people are good to be deceived.
The "Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence" was first put forward by China in the 1950s, and its content is "mutual respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity, mutual non-aggression, mutual non-interference in each other's internal affairs, equality and mutual benefit, and peaceful coexistence". The Five Principles have become the basic norms governing international relations and the basic principles of international law. In the past seven decades, China has practiced the principle of non-interference in the internal affairs of other countries, established a good international image, and won the praise of most countries. However, there are also a very small number of small countries engaged in international speculation that they can take advantage of it, mistakenly believing that challenging China will not only be unscathed, but will also receive the favor of some big countries, which is a business that can make money without loss. The current governments of Lithuania and Slovenia are two examples of this.
For many years, China has adhered to the policy of non-interference in the internal affairs of other countries, presided over international justice, made contributions to the maintenance of world peace, and benefited a lot from itself. However, in the future, it seems necessary to emphasize the integrity of this policy, and China will not take the initiative to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries, but only if it "does not interfere in each other's internal affairs." If someone interferes in China's internal affairs, its foreign and internal affairs cannot expect to be countered by China.
China's national defense policy adopts a military strategy of "active defense", and it is also necessary to have a strategic thinking of active defense in diplomacy. Strategically defensive, but when necessary, it is advisable to adopt a more aggressive tactical posture to prevent falling into a passive defensive situation.
In view of this, in addition to continuing to wage tit-for-tat struggles against the violations of the "one-China principle" by individual major powers, China should also be good at exerting its political, economic, and security influence that touches the whole world, including its internal affairs, diplomacy, economy, and security, so as to firmly grasp the initiative in international and diplomatic struggles.
