國防部：幾件美制武器無法改變兩岸軍事力量對比態勢

10月31日下午，國防部舉行例行記者會，國防部新聞發言人張曉剛大校答記者問。

記者：據報道，美國國防部宣佈批準價值19.88億美元對臺軍售案，包括地空導彈系統和雷達系統。請問發言人有何評論？

Question: It is reported that the US Department of Defense recently approved arms sales worth of US$1,988 million to Taiwan, including the surface-to-air missile system and radar system. What is your comment on that?

張曉剛：美國向中國臺灣地區出售武器，嚴重違反一個中國原則和中美三個聯合公報規定，嚴重侵犯中國主權和安全利益，嚴重破壞中美關系、危害臺海和平穩定，向“臺獨”分裂勢力發出錯誤信號。中方強烈譴責、堅決反對，已向美方提出嚴正交涉。

Zhang Xiaogang: The US arms sales to China’s Taiwan region severely violate the one-China principle and the three China-US joint communiqués. This move seriously undermines China’s sovereignty and security interests, disrupts China-US relations, undermines peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait, and sends very wrong signals to the“Taiwan independence”separatist forces. We strongly condemn and firmly oppose it and have lodged solemn representations to the US side.

美方違背自身承諾，變本加厲武裝臺灣，給“臺獨”勢力壯膽打氣，妄圖加速把臺灣推向兵兇戰危的險境。民進黨當局買美國的武器納“投名狀”，美方抽臺灣老百姓的血養肥自己的軍工復合體。事實一再證明，“臺獨”分裂和外部幹涉是破壞臺海現狀、制造兩岸危機、危害地區穩定的禍根亂源。

The US has reneged on its own promise and is intensifying efforts to arm Taiwan, emboldening the “Taiwan independence”separatist forces and pushing Taiwan closer towards the abyss of military conflict. The DPP authorities purchased weapons to solicit US support, allowing the US to exploit the hard-earned money of the people in Taiwan to feed its military-industrial complex. Records have proven time and again that the “Taiwan independence”separatists and foreign interference are the source of chaos that undermine the status quo，cause cross-strait crisis, and disrupt regional stability.

臺灣問題是中國核心利益中的核心，是中美關系第一條不可逾越的紅線。中方敦促美方切實認清武裝臺灣、引火燒身的嚴重後果，不要在錯誤道路上越走越遠。幾件美制武器無法改變兩岸軍事力量對比態勢，更阻擋不瞭中國終將統一的歷史大勢。中國人民解放軍持續強化練兵備戰，全面提升打贏能力，堅決捍衛國傢主權和領土完整。

The Taiwan question is at the very core of China’s core interests, and the first red line that must not be crossed in China-US relations. China urges the US to fully recognize the severe consequences of arming Taiwan which would surely backfire, and not to go further down the wrong path. Several pieces of US weaponry will not close the cross-strait military power gap, still less stop the historical trend of China’s reunification. The PLA will continuously improve its combat readiness, comprehensively enhance the military capability to fight and win, and firmly safeguard national sovereignty and territorial integrity.
