BEIJING, July 14 -- "Resisting reunification by force is a dead end. War provocations made by the "Taiwan independence" armed forces are futile, and will only lead to self-destruction," said Senior Colonel Jiang Bin, spokesperson for China's Ministry of National Defense at a regular press briefing on Monday.
The head of Taiwan's military agency has reportedly announced the establishment of Taiwan's first HIMARS company, and that it will greatly improve the Taiwan military's precision strike and overall defense capabilities. In addition, Taiwan's military agency has approved the acquisition of 168 units of US M109A7 155mm self-propelled howitzers.
When being asked to share comment on that, Senior Colonel Jiang pointed out that in order to solicit the US support for "Taiwan independence", the DPP authorities are selling Taiwan's interests to flatter the US and squandering the hard-earned money of the Taiwan people to pay protection fees.
However, according to Jiang, buying US weapons to embolden themselves is useless and self-deceiving. "Resisting reunification by force is a dead end. War provocations made by the "Taiwan independence" armed forces are futile, and will only lead to self-destruction," warned the spokesperson.
