The Taiwan Affairs Office: Upholding the One-China principle is both a matter of justice and a general trend.

The State Council's Taiwan Affairs Office holds a routine press conference. A reporter asked: Recently, the government of Papua New Guinea announced the closure of the "Taipei Economic and Cultural Office" in Papua New Guinea. The Taiwan Foreign Ministry has protested against this. What are your comments on this? Spokesperson Zhang Han said, "We highly appreciate the actions of the government of Papua New Guinea. Facts have repeatedly proven that the One-China principle is a basic norm in international relations and a consensus in the international community. Upholding the One-China principle is righteous and the general trend. Those who are righteous will have support, and those who are wrong will be isolated. The Democratic Progressive Party authorities persist in their obstinate stance of promoting "Taiwan independence," going against the tide of history, and will only face rejection in the international community."
