On October 12, Foreign Ministry Spokesman Mao Ning presided over a regular press conference. A Reuters reporter asked. The US State Department said last week that China's maritime activities on the east coast of Taiwan Island “seriously destabilize”. What comments does the Ministry of Foreign Affairs have on this? Mao Ning said that China has stated its position on this issue many times. China has an exclusive economic zone and continental shelf in the sea area east of Taiwan Island. China's activities in this area are entirely within the scope of China's sovereign rights and jurisdiction. It is legitimate, legal, and irreproachable. It has never been China that has provoked incidents and undermined stability in this sea area. Mao Ning pointed out that the Taiwan issue is an internal affair of China, and no external interference is allowed. The US side should strictly abide by the one-China principle and the three Sino-US joint communiques, carefully handle the Taiwan issue, and maintain the overall situation of Sino-US relations and regional peace and stability through practical actions.
