BEIJING, June 14 (Xinhua) — A spokeswoman for the Chinese mainland said Wednesday that the United States had made plans some time ago to abandon Taiwan at any time.
Zhu Fenglian, spokesperson for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, made the remarks at a press conference in response to a foreign media report on an evacuation plan targeting U.S. nationals. in Taiwan.
For some time now, some American politicians have been content with lip service about promoting peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait, but in reality have been provocative by constantly selling weapons to Taiwan, Ms. Zhu said.
The so-called “escape plan” makes it clear to everyone that the United States is only using Taiwan as a pawn to counter China and will abandon it at any time, Zhu added.
The United States has always pursued the doctrine of “America First”, causing division and conflict in the world for its own interests. Whether in Iraq, Syria or Afghanistan, the United States withdrew and took the spoils, plunging these countries into turmoil and their people into misery, Zhu said, adding that the United States wanted currently replicating their misdeeds in Taiwan.
Taiwan compatriots will be able to determine whether the United States supports Taiwan or harms it, and assess whether the authority of the Democratic Progressive Party in Taiwan acts as a guardian or a source of nuisance for the island, Ms. Zhu added. END
