Beijing, January 12 (Xinhua) — The one-China principle is the universal consensus of the international community, the basic norm of international relations, and the political foundation of China-Africa ties, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said on Monday.
Mao Ning made the statement at a regular press briefing in response to a request to comment on the Taiwanese administration's statements on the one-China principle mentioned in the joint press release of the 9th round of the China-African Union (AU) strategic dialogue.
As the Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson pointed out, the joint press release fully and accurately reflects the African side's consistent and clear position on the Taiwan issue.
Mao Ning quoted AU Commission Chairman Mahmoud Ali Yusuf as saying in a recent interview: “We will always be on the Chinese side on the one-China principle.”
The Chinese diplomat recalled that the Beijing Declaration was adopted at the 2024 Beijing Summit of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation. Participating African countries and the AU Commission reaffirmed their firm support for the one-China principle, emphasizing that there is only one China, Taiwan is an inalienable part of Chinese territory, and the government of the People's Republic of China is the sole legitimate government representing all of China. Those present also expressed support for China's efforts to achieve national reunification.
“We urge the Taiwan administration to face reality and stop its self-deprecating and clumsy political show,” Mao Ning emphasized. –0–
