No one and no force should be allowed to engage in provocations or stir up trouble on the Taiwan question, which lies at the very heart of China's core interests and represents a red line that must not be crossed, a Chinese mainland spokeswoman said on Wednesday in Beijing.
Zhang Han, spokeswoman for the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office, made the comments at a regular press conference in response to a media query concerning Japan calling China's countermeasures against Japanese lawmaker Keiji Furuya's egregious acts related to Taiwan as "regrettable".
"I want to stress once again that the Taiwan question is at the very heart of China's core interests and represents a red line that must not be crossed. Keiji Furuya's overt interference in China's internal affairs over the Taiwan question constitutes a serious infringement on China's sovereignty and territorial integrity. The countermeasures China has taken in response are entirely reasonable and lawful. Japan, for its part, should make deep reflection on its history of aggression, draw lessons from the past, earnestly correct its course, abide by the one-China principle and the spirit of the four political documents between China and Japan, and must not allow any individual or any force to engage in provocations or cause trouble on the Taiwan question," she said.
