China summons Japanese ambassador to lodge representations ... (新华网)

BEIJING, Aug. 5 (Xinhua) -- Chinese Vice Foreign Minister Deng Li was on Thursday instructed to urgently summon the Japanese ambassador to China Tarumi ...

"China strongly urges the Japanese side to abide by the principles of the four political documents between China and Japan and its political commitments on the Taiwan question, stop interfering in China's internal affairs, prudently and properly handle Taiwan-related issues, and refrain from going further down the wrong path," Deng said. Reiterating China's position on the Taiwan question, Deng said that the Taiwan question concerns the political foundation of China-Japan relations and the basic trust between the two countries. Deng noted that Japan joined other members of G7 and the EU in issuing the statement which confounds black and white and attempts to justify the U.S. connivance at Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi's visit to China's Taiwan region and infringement on China's sovereignty, made unwarranted accusations and smears against China, grossly interfered in China's internal affairs, seriously violated basic norms governing international relations and the principles of the four political documents between China and Japan, and sent a seriously wrong signal to the international community.

China lodges representations with Canada over G7 statement on ... (Xinhua)

BEIJING, Aug. 5 (Xinhua) -- Chinese Vice Foreign Minister Xie Feng on Thursday summoned Jim Nickel, charge d'affaires of the Canadian embassy in China, ...

"This is flagrant logic of robbers," he said. The U.S. side initiated the provocations, while China was compelled to act in self-defense, which is legal and reasonable, Xie said, noting that instead of holding the United States accountable, the G7 has asked the Chinese side to exercise restraint. China sternly condemns the G7 statement that confounds right and wrong, Xie said, adding that Nancy Pelosi's visit to Taiwan gravely violated the one-China principle and the three China-U.S. joint communiques, severely impacted the political foundation of China-U.S. relations, seriously infringed upon China's sovereignty and territorial integrity, and seriously undermined peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait.

The one-China principle is the political foundation for China's relations with all other countries and a "red line and bottom line that cannot be crossed", Deng said. While meeting with diplomatic envoys from the relevant European countries and the EU on Thursday, Vice-Foreign Minister Deng Li said that the G7 joint statement is a blatant political provocation and wanton interference in China's domestic affairs, and sends "seriously wrong signals" to "Taiwan independence" forces. The Foreign Ministry has summoned diplomatic envoys from the G7 countries and the European Union in China on Thursday to lodge solemn representations over a joint statement made by foreign ministers of the group's member nations and the EU High Representative following US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's recent visit to China's Taiwan region.

There is no change in the respective one China policies, where applicable, and basic positions on Taiwan of the G7 members. There is no justification to use a visit as pretext for aggressive military activity in the Taiwan Strait. It is normal and routine for legislators from our countries to travel internationally.

The US, as always, is using G7 as a tool to advance its own interests and agenda. Multilateral groups such as ASEAN and Arab League also voiced support for the one-China policy on Thursday. To avoid this crisis imposed on China, China has already made the greatest diplomatic efforts, but at the same time, China will never tolerate any attempt to create tension, instigate confrontation and incite secession in the region, Wang noted. "The US instigated the trouble and the crisis, escalating the situation. , calling it evil and shameless, which is reminiscent of the "Eight-Power Allied Forces" that invaded China a hundred years ago. As a puppet of the US, the G7 censured Beijing's legitimate defense and response to Washington's serious provocation, reflecting its hypocrisy, duplicity and ugliness.

The Taiwan Strait is facing severe challenges, and the fundamental cause is the repeated moves by the U.S. and the Taiwan authorities to change the status quo, the statement added. There is only one China in the world, and Taiwan is an inseparable part of China, and the Taiwan question is purely China's internal affairs, which is the exact status quo across the Taiwan Strait, the statement said. The so-called statement claimed China's "escalatory response" to Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi's visit to the Taiwan region risks increasing tensions across the Taiwan Strait while calling on China not to "unilaterally change the status quo by force" in the region.
