BEIJING, July 30 (Xinhua) — Chinese Defense Ministry spokesperson Zhang Xiaogang on Wednesday called on relevant countries to exercise utmost caution when handling Taiwan-related issues.

Zhang Xiaogang made the statement in response to recent reports that the United States did not allow Taiwanese leader Lai Qingde to make a planned “transit stop” in New York during his trip to Latin America.

Zhang Xiaogang stressed that China firmly opposes any form of official interaction between any country and the Chinese region of Taiwan.

"We urge the United States to strictly abide by the one-China principle and the three China-US joint communiques, handle Taiwan-related issues with the utmost caution, and make joint efforts to promote the stable, healthy and sustainable development of China-US relations," the spokesman said.

Commenting on reports that the US sent several active and retired military personnel as observers to the so-called Hanguang 41 exercises in Taiwan, Zhang Xiaogang stressed that the Taiwan issue is an exclusively internal affair of China that does not allow any external interference.

He noted that China is firmly opposed to any form of collusion between the United States and Taiwan in the military sphere.

The spokesman also warned Taiwan's Democratic Progressive Party administration that any attempt to secure American support for its push for "Taiwan independence" and resist Chinese reunification by force was doomed to failure. -0-

BEIJING, July 30 (Xinhua) — China is deeply concerned about the humanitarian catastrophe facing the people of the Gaza Strip and calls on all parties involved, especially Israel, to immediately stop military operations in Gaza and prevent a humanitarian crisis of an even greater scale, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Guo Jiakun said on Wednesday.

The humanitarian situation in the Palestinian enclave is reportedly a major concern for the international community. French President Emmanuel Macron and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer have raised the possibility of recognizing a Palestinian state at the UN General Assembly. Meanwhile, Israel's security cabinet is still considering the option of a full military occupation of the Gaza Strip and a blockade of cities where the Palestinian Hamas movement operates.

Answering a question on the matter at a press briefing, Guo Jiakun said China is closely monitoring the current situation in the enclave and opposes Israel's further escalation of military action in the region.

"We are deeply concerned about the humanitarian catastrophe facing the people of the Gaza Strip. It has been 21 months since the new round of conflict began, and the humanitarian situation in Gaza has never been so dire," the Chinese diplomat said.

He cited a recent World Health Organization statement that of the 74 malnutrition deaths in Gaza since the start of the year, 63 occurred this month, including 25 children, in the latest evidence of a humanitarian catastrophe in the Palestinian enclave.

“We call on the parties concerned, especially Israel, to immediately cease military action in Gaza, lift the blockade and siege of the enclave, fully restore humanitarian access there and prevent a wider humanitarian crisis,” the official representative stressed.

Noting that the Palestinian issue remains a key issue in the Middle East, Guo Jiakun stated that a solution based on the principle of “two states for two peoples” is the only way out and China firmly supports the Palestinian people in establishing an independent State of Palestine.

"China is willing to continue to cooperate with the international community to end the fighting in Gaza as soon as possible, ease the humanitarian crisis, realize the two-state solution, and achieve a comprehensive, fair and lasting settlement of the Palestinian issue," the Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman concluded. –0–

Moscow, July 30 (Xinhua) — Russia's economy has already managed to develop immunity to Western sanctions, Russian presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov said, commenting on U.S. President Donald Trump's threats to introduce new restrictive measures.

"We have been living under a huge number of sanctions for quite a long time. Our economy operates under a huge number of restrictions. Therefore, of course, we have already developed a certain immunity in this regard," he said, answering a question about preparations for the introduction of new restrictions.

Earlier, D. Trump announced that he was reducing the 50-day deadline he had set for reaching a ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine to 10 days. If the negotiations fail, he plans to introduce new import duties, sanctions or “something else.” –0–

BEIJING, July 30 (Xinhua) — Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun on Wednesday expressed hope that countries that have established so-called "diplomatic ties" with Taiwan will not be repeatedly manipulated and used by forces advocating for "Taiwan independence."

“Instead, they should look into the situation, realize their mistakes, return to the right path and make the right decision as soon as possible that is in line with the historical trend and meets the long-term interests of their people,” the Chinese diplomat said at a regular departmental briefing.

Guo Jiakun made the remarks while commenting on reports that Taiwanese leader Lai Qingde had postponed his visit to Latin American countries that have established so-called “diplomatic ties” with Taiwan because the United States did not allow him to make a transit stop in New York.

The official representative recalled that the one-China principle is one of the basic norms of international relations and the general consensus of the international community. According to him, adhering to the one-China principle is great international justice, the cherished wish of the people, and the general trend of the times.

The Lai Qingde administration's separatist provocations will never succeed, they will not shake the firm international commitment to the one-China principle, and they will not be able to stop the historical trend toward China's complete reunification, the Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman concluded. -0-

BEIJING, July 30 (Xinhua) — The Philippines is a troublemaker and a source of danger in the South China Sea (SCS), Chinese Defense Ministry spokesman Zhang Xiaogang said.

Zhang Xiaogang made the remarks at a press conference on Wednesday, commenting on the Philippine defense minister's statement that the Philippine military will resolutely respond to China's "aggressive" actions in the South China Sea and reports that the Philippines is strengthening defense cooperation with the United States, Australia, Japan and India.

The official representative called such statements a complete distortion of the facts and an attempt to shift the blame.

The territorial boundaries of the Philippines have long been defined by a number of international treaties, and the islands in the South China Sea are outside these boundaries, Zhang Xiaogang noted.

He noted that the Philippine side, however, illegally occupies individual reefs and islands of the Nansha Archipelago, which belongs to China, often provokes and creates obstacles for China at sea, and even condones extra-regional forces in escalating tensions in the South China Sea.

China remains steadfast in safeguarding its territorial sovereignty, maritime rights and interests, and will continue to resolutely oppose the Philippines' encroachments and provocative actions in accordance with laws and regulations, Zhang Xiaogang concluded. –0–

BEIJING, July 30 (Xinhua) — Since 2015, the Peacekeeping Operations Center of the Chinese Ministry of Defense has sent experts abroad to train more than 1,600 UN peacekeepers from over 70 countries, Zhang Xiaogang, a spokesman for the Chinese Defense Ministry, said on Wednesday.
