The full and complete national reunification of China not only meets the common aspiration of the 1.4 billion Chinese people, but also redresses the historical injustice done to the Chinese nation and serves the tide of our times.<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>There is only one China in the world; Taiwan has been an inseparable part of China, and the Government of the People\u2019s Republic of China is the sole legitimate government representing the whole of China. This reflects the true status quo of the Taiwan question and constitutes a common-sense understanding widely held by the international community.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>The year 2025 marks the 80th Anniversary of the Victory of the Chinese People\u2019s War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War, and Taiwan\u2019s return to Motherland China is an integral component of the post-World War II international order.<\/strong> <\/span><\/p>\n<p>The one-China principle has henceforth become a fundamental guiding norm in international relations and also serves as the political cornerstone for China to establish, maintain, and develop diplomatic relations with 183 countries, including Pakistan.<\/p>\n<p>However, the United States government recently announced a plan to sell advanced weaponry worth 11.1 billion dollars to Taiwan, which constitutes a serious violation of the one-China principle and undermines the core spirit of the three China-U.S. Joint Communiqu\u00e9s, particularly the 17 August Communiqu\u00e9 of 1982. Such U.S. malafide action grossly interferes in China\u2019s internal affairs, jeopardises its sovereignty and national security, undermines peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait, and sends a very wrong signal to the separatists advocating the so-called \u201cTaiwan independence.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>China has strongly condemned this unacceptable move and lodged stern representations with the U.S. side. China has taken countermeasures against 20 U.S. military-industrial companies and 10 of their senior executives in accordance with the Anti-Foreign Sanctions Law of the People\u2019s Republic of China, demonstrating its firm resolve to curb the \u201cTaiwan independence\u201d adventurism and safeguard its core national interests.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"3ZQTQpzNyf\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/pakistanintheworld.pk\/live\/china-pakistan-to-continue-collaboration-on-afghanistan-bangladesh-cpec-02-development-discussed-to-strengthen-cooperation-in-financial-banking-sectors\/\">China Pakistan to Continue Collaboration on Afghanistan &#038; Bangladesh !

In the 17 August Communiqu\u00e9 between China and the U.S., the U.S. explicitly committed to \u201cgradually reducing its sale of arms to Taiwan, leading, over a period of time, to a final resolution.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, for over 40 years, the U.S. has repeatedly breached its pledge\u2014persistently expanding the scale of arms sales to Taiwan and even enhancing the performance of the weapons provided. This double-dealing exposes the U.S.\u2019s intent to sustain its manoeuvres of \u201cusing Taiwan to contain China,\u201d which pushes the Taiwan Strait further towards the peril of conflict.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the Democratic Progressive Party authorities in the Taiwan region, equipped with the purchased U.S. weaponry, turn Taiwan into a \u201cpowder keg,\u201d doing great harm to the well-being of the Taiwanese and accelerating the demise of the \u201cTaiwan independence\u201d separatists.<\/p>\n<p>The recently concluded <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>\u201cJustice-Mission-2025\u201d military exercises<\/strong> <\/span>conducted by the People\u2019s Liberation Army around Taiwan are necessary countermeasures against \u201cTaiwan independence\u201d provocations and external interventions, as well as rightful actions to ensure national sovereignty. The historical trend of mainland China\u2019s reunification with Taiwan will never be stopped by any arms sales or provocations.<\/p>\n<p>China and Pakistan are all-weather strategic cooperative partners. Both countries have enjoyed a unique and time-tested friendship. Pakistan was one of the earliest countries to recognise the People\u2019s Republic of China. Since establishing diplomatic relations with China in 1951, Pakistan has consistently supported China\u2019s core interests at bilateral and multilateral fora.<\/p>\n<p>The Action Plan to foster an even closer China-Pakistan community with a shared future in the new era (2025\u20132029), issued in September 2025, states clearly that Pakistan reaffirms its steadfast commitment to the one-China principle, regards Taiwan as an inalienable part of the territory of the People\u2019s Republic of China, and resolutely opposes any form of \u201cTaiwan independence.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"kA9sPmu8zP\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/pakistanintheworld.pk\/live\/pakistan-china-agree-on-quarterly-security-working-group-annual-interior-ministers-meeting\/\">Pakistan\u2013China Agree on Quarterly Security Working Group &#038; Annual Interior Ministers\u2019 Meeting<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><iframe class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" title=\"&#8220;Pakistan\u2013China Agree on Quarterly Security Working Group &#038; Annual Interior Ministers\u2019 Meeting&#8221; &#8212; Pakistan In the World\" src=\"https:\/\/pakistanintheworld.pk\/live\/pakistan-china-agree-on-quarterly-security-working-group-annual-interior-ministers-meeting\/embed\/#?secret=kwbHNHyxZS#?secret=kA9sPmu8zP\" data-secret=\"kA9sPmu8zP\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>President Zardari and Prime Minister Shehbaz have also emphasised that the Pakistan-China relationship is the cornerstone of Pakistan\u2019s foreign policy.<\/strong> <\/span><\/p>\n<p>This ironclad brotherhood is rooted in our shared commitment to safeguarding national sovereignty and territorial integrity, and also highlights the strategic and enduring nature of the bilateral relations.
