Ministry of National Defense: "Taiwan Independence" Armed Forces Dare to Start a War Will Face Catastrophic Consequences
On the afternoon of February 10, Colonel Jiang Bin, Deputy Director of the Ministry of National Defense News Bureau and spokesperson for the Ministry of National Defense, released a statement regarding recent military-related issues.
Reporter: According to reports, the Taiwanese military plans to deploy the "HIMARS" system to Penghu and Dongyin, with a strike range that can cover the PLA positions in Fujian and Zhejiang. Taiwanese scholars have revealed that the defense department proposed a concept of "preemptive strike" against the PLA. What is your comment on this?
Jiang Bin: From the deployment of weapons to the initiation of so-called "preemptive strikes," the ideas of "Taiwan independence" elements are becoming increasingly absurd and overestimating their capabilities. In the face of the PLA's formidable strength, if the "Taiwan independence" armed forces dare to provoke conflict, they will face catastrophic consequences.
