BEIJING, Aug. 8 (Xinhua) — China's Foreign Ministry and the Chinese Embassy in the Philippines have expressed strong protest to the Philippine side over the statements made by the country's leader on the Taiwan issue, a Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman said on Friday.

During his visit to India, the Philippine leader reportedly said in an interview that if there is a standoff between China and the US over the Taiwan issue, the Philippines cannot stay away due to its geographical location. If a full-scale war breaks out (in the Taiwan Strait), the Philippines will inevitably be involved.

The Philippine leader also said that there are a large number of Filipinos living on the island of Taiwan. If a conflict breaks out, the Philippines will have to intervene to get its citizens back.

The official representative of the Chinese Foreign Ministry stated that there is only one China in the world, and Taiwan is an integral part of it. The Taiwan issue is an internal matter of China and lies at the heart of its fundamental interests. How to resolve this issue is the business of the Chinese themselves, which does not tolerate interference.

The Philippine government has made serious commitments to China, including adhering to the one-China policy, recognizing that Taiwan is an inalienable part of China's territory, and understanding the Chinese government's efforts to realize the country's reunification. In addition, the Philippine president has also made it clear that "the Philippines is committed to the one-China policy. The Taiwan issue is purely China's internal affair to be resolved by the Chinese people," the spokesperson said, noting that these words are written in black and white, but the Philippines is now going back on its words without considering the serious consequences.

"They continue to make incorrect and provocative statements and actions, continue to evade and undermine the one-China principle, and continue to damage China-Philippines relations. China firmly opposes this," the spokesman added.

The spokesperson further stressed that “geographical proximity” and “the large number of Filipinos in Taiwan” should not be used as pretexts to interfere in the internal and sovereign affairs of other countries, adding that these claims not only contravene international law and the ASEAN Charter, but also harm regional peace and stability as well as the fundamental interests of the Filipino people.

"We urge the Philippines to earnestly abide by the one-China principle and the spirit of the China-Philippines joint communique on the establishment of diplomatic relations, and refrain from playing with fire on issues involving China's core interests," the foreign ministry spokesman said. -0-

Turkmenbashi /Turkmenistan/, Aug. 8 (Xinhua) — The third United Nations Conference on Landlocked Developing Countries concluded Friday at the Avaza National Tourist Zone in the Turkmen city of Turkmenbashi. The event, which was held from Aug. 5 to 8, was attended by representatives of more than 30 countries. The participants discussed expanding cooperation and a comprehensive approach to addressing humanitarian, economic, social and environmental problems of landlocked countries.

As UN Secretary-General António Guterres noted, many developing countries face financial difficulties and lack a voice in global financial governance. He called on the international community to create conditions so that developing countries without seaports can also benefit from scientific and technological progress.

The conference participants decided to establish a Group on Landlocked Developing Countries under the auspices of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change. This, in their opinion, will allow for more effective solutions to the problems associated with the vulnerability of these countries to increasingly frequent natural disasters.

The conference also endorsed the new Avaza Agenda for Action until 2034, which aims to become a concrete plan for deepening partnerships and creating conditions for sustainable development in the Global South.

There are 32 landlocked countries in the world. Their combined area is approximately 12 percent of the world's land surface and their population is approximately 570 million people. –0–
