國(guó)防部：堅(jiān)決反對(duì)美在南海搞脅迫霸凌和陣營(yíng)對(duì)抗
The MND: Firm Opposition to Coercion, Bullying and Bloc Confrontation by the US in the South China Sea
9月26日下午，國(guó)防部舉行例行記者會(huì)，國(guó)防部新聞局副局長(zhǎng)、國(guó)防部新聞發(fā)言人張曉剛大校答記者問(wèn)。
記者：9月21日至22日，美日印澳“四方安全對(duì)話”領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人峰會(huì)舉行。峰會(huì)后的聯(lián)合聲明表態(tài)不針對(duì)中國(guó)，但卻指責(zé)當(dāng)前南海存在“脅迫和霸凌”。此外，聯(lián)合聲明還宣布明年將舉行四方海岸警衛(wèi)隊(duì)聯(lián)合巡航行動(dòng)，計(jì)劃擴(kuò)大“印太海域意識(shí)伙伴關(guān)系”。請(qǐng)問(wèn)對(duì)此有何評(píng)論？
Question: The 2024 Quad Leaders Summit issued a joint statement which did not mention China directly but criticized coercive and intimidating maneuvers in the South China Sea. It also announced to launch a first-ever Quad-at-sea Ship Observer Mission by coast guards of the four countries in 2025. What’s your comment?
張曉剛：有關(guān)聯(lián)合聲明用似是而非的語(yǔ)言敘事，妄圖遮掩針對(duì)中國(guó)的險(xiǎn)惡用心。需要強(qiáng)調(diào)的是，中國(guó)對(duì)南海諸島及其附近海域擁有無(wú)可爭(zhēng)辯的主權(quán)。中方在管轄海空域維權(quán)執(zhí)法，完全正當(dāng)合理、無(wú)可非議。
Zhang Xiaogang: Relevant joint statement uses vague languages to cover its malicious intention to target China. It needs to be emphasized that China has indisputable sovereignty over Nanhai Zhudao and its adjacent waters. It is fully legitimate, justified and beyond reproach for China to conduct constructions on our own territory and carry out law-enforcement operations in waters and airspace under our jurisdiction.
美、日、印、澳都不是南海問(wèn)題當(dāng)事方，卻對(duì)中國(guó)搞“麥克風(fēng)外交”，明里暗里指責(zé)抹黑中方，拱火攪局、誤導(dǎo)輿論。特別是美方在南海地區(qū)部署進(jìn)攻性武器，拉攏盟友頻繁搞軍演，對(duì)中方島礁進(jìn)行抵近偵察等。要說(shuō)誰(shuí)在南海搞脅迫和霸凌，誰(shuí)在搞陣營(yíng)對(duì)抗，美國(guó)當(dāng)之無(wú)愧。
Though not directly concerned in the South China Sea issue, the US, Japan, India and Australia are resorting to microphone diplomacy to criticize and smear China and stir up troubles and mislead the public. In particular, the US has deployed offensive weapons in the region, worked with its allies to step up military exercises, and conduct close-in reconnaissance against China’s islands and reefs. Talking about militarization, coercion, bullying, and bloc confrontation in the South China Sea, I think the US deserves these labels more than any other country.
有關(guān)國(guó)家開(kāi)展聯(lián)合巡航，應(yīng)有利于維護(hù)地區(qū)和平穩(wěn)定，不得損害第三方利益。中方堅(jiān)決反對(duì)在南海挑動(dòng)是非、興風(fēng)作浪、加劇緊張的行徑，堅(jiān)決維護(hù)自身的領(lǐng)土主權(quán)和海洋權(quán)益，堅(jiān)決維護(hù)南海和平穩(wěn)定。
Joint maritime operations carried out by relevant countries should contribute to regional peace and stability, and not harm the interests of any third party. The Chinese side is firmly opposed to actions that may stir up troubles and escalate tensions in the South China Sea. We will firmly defend our own sovereignty, security and maritime rights and interest, and maintain peace and stability in the South China Sea.
