Beijing, November 20 (Xinhua) — Japan must remember that Taiwan is China's Taiwan, and whatever happens to Taiwan is none of Japan's business, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said at a regular ministry press conference on Thursday.
Regarding Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi's remarks about the so-called "Taiwan emergency," many Chinese believe that Japan bears historical guilt over the Taiwan issue and is the party least competent to discuss Taiwan-related issues.
Asked by a journalist to comment on such Chinese opinions, Mao Ning recalled that Japan forcibly occupied Taiwan and established colonial rule there for half a century. The Japanese invaders committed countless crimes in Taiwan.
This year marks the 80th anniversary of Taiwan's liberation from Japanese occupation, Mao Ning continued, adding that Japan must remember that Taiwan is Chinese Taiwan and that whatever happens to Taiwan is none of Japan's business.
"Using Taiwan to provoke problems will only bring trouble to Japan itself," she commented. -0-
