國防部警告美方一些人：別想在臺灣問題上“偷雞”

MND Warns Individuals of the US Side: Playing Sneaky Tricks on Taiwan Would only Backfire

　　2月27日下午，國防部舉行例行記者會，國防部新聞局局長、國防部新聞發(fā)言人吳謙大校答記者問。

　　記者：美軍印太總部司令近日稱，近年解放軍在臺島周邊活動明顯增加，僅2月就向臺島周邊多次派遣“間諜氣球”和作戰(zhàn)艦機。大陸“攻臺”時很可能“用演習(xí)掩蓋其真正目的”。另據(jù)臺媒報道，有美軍印太總部官員參與“漢光”演習(xí)兵推。請問發(fā)言人有何評論？

　　Question: Commander of the US Indo-Pacific Command (INDOPACOM) recently said that the PLA had significantly increased its activities around Taiwan in recent years, and had sent multiple spy balloons, naval vessels and military planes around the island in February alone. He also claimed that the Chinese mainland will probably use exercises as a fig leaf to conceal an attack on the island. In addition, Taiwan media outlets reported that officers from the INDOPACOM participated in the table-top phase of Han Kuang exercise. What’s your comment on this?

　　吳謙：關(guān)于你提到的具體戰(zhàn)法，我在這里不作評論。兩岸同胞都是中國人，我們愿意以最大的誠意、盡最大的努力爭取和平統(tǒng)一的前景，但決不承諾放棄使用武力，這針對的是“臺獨”分裂勢力和外部干涉。只要有人搞“臺獨”，就必然遭到人民解放軍出其不意的迎頭痛擊。我們也警告美方一些人，別想在臺灣問題上“偷雞”，偷雞不成蝕的可不止是一把米。

　　Wu Qian: I will not comment on the specific tactics you mentioned. Compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait belong to one and the same Chinese family. We will strive for the prospect of peaceful reunification with the greatest sincerity and utmost effort. But we make no promise to renounce the use of force, which is targeted at the "Taiwan independence" separatist forces and external interference. Anyone who dares to push for “Taiwan independence” will certainly face swift and strong countermeasures from the PLA. And we warn some individuals of the US side: playing sneaky tricks on Taiwan would only backfire.
