问：7月13日，日本发布2021年版《防卫白皮书》，诬称中国军事发展“缺乏透明度”，在东海、南海“以实力改变现状”，并写入“台湾局势对日本安全及国际稳定十分重要”等表述。此外，日防务高官近期频繁就台湾问题、中国军力发展等议题发表负面言论，并在多个场合呼吁联合盟友对中国军队进行防范和遏制。请问对此有何评论？答：日方在7月13日发布的2021年版《防卫白皮书》，无端指责中国正常的国防和军队建设，恶意揣测中国国防政策，刻意渲染所谓“中国威胁”，在台湾问题上粗暴干涉中国内政，中国军队对此表示强烈不满和坚决反对，并向日方提出严正交涉。
Press: On July 13, Japan issued The Defense of Japan 2021 White Paper, which falsely claimed that China's military development "lacks transparency" and China ‘attamps to change the status quo by coercion’ in the East and South China Sea, and stated that the situation surrounding Taiwan is important for Japan’s security and the stability of the international community. In addition, recently some senior defense officials of Japan have frequently made negative remarks on topics such as the Taiwan question and the growth of the Chinese military, and even lobbied and colluded with its allies on many occasions to guard against and contain the Chinese military. What's your comment?
答：日方在7月13日发布的2021年版《防卫白皮书》，无端指责中国正常的国防和军队建设，恶意揣测中国国防政策，刻意渲染所谓“中国威胁”，在台湾问题上粗暴干涉中国内政，中国军队对此表示强烈不满和坚决反对，并向日方提出严正交涉。
Senior Colonel Tan Kefei, spokesperson for the Chinese Ministry of National Defense: The Defense of Japan 2021 White Paper released by Japan on July 13 groundlessly criticizes China’s normal national defense and military development, maliciously speculates on China's national defense policy, deliberately plays up the so-called "China threat" and grossly interferes in China's internal affairs on the Taiwan question. The Chinese military is strongly dissatisfied with and firmly opposed to it and is making solemn representations to the Japanese side.
世界上只有一个中国，台湾是中国领土神圣不可分割的一部分。日方利用《防卫白皮书》对台湾问题指手画脚，严重违反联合国2758号决议和国际社会关于一个中国的共识，损害中日四个政治文件精神和日方在台湾问题上对中方作出的严肃承诺，损害中日关系政治基础，是完全错误和不负责任的。台湾问题纯属中国内政，不容任何外部势力干涉。中国军队将采取一切必要措施，坚决捍卫国家主权和领土完整。
There is only one China in the world, and Taiwan is a sacred and inseparable part of China's territory. Japan’s indiscreet remarks on the Taiwan question in its defense white paper seriously violated the United Nations General Assembly Resolution 2758 and the universal consensus of ‘one-China principle’ in the international community, damaged the spirit of the four political documents signed between China and Japan and Japan’s serious commitment to China on the Taiwan question, and also undermined the political foundation of Sino-Japanese relations, which is totally wrong and irresponsible. The Taiwan question is purely China's internal affairs and allows no interference by any external forces. The Chinese military will take all necessary measures to resolutely safeguard China’s national sovereignty and territorial integrity.
需要强调的是，中国始终坚定不渝走和平发展道路，坚定不移奉行防御性国防政策，中国的国防建设始终着眼于满足自身安全的正当需要，中国军力的发展完全是世界和平力量的壮大。日本应客观理性看待中国和中国军队的发展，停止炒作所谓“中国军事威胁”。中国军队有决心、有信心、有能力守护人民幸福生活，坚定维护国家主权、安全、发展利益。
It should be stressed that China has always been committed firmly to the path of peaceful development and unswervingly pursues a national defense policy that is defensive in nature. China's national defense construction has always been focused on the legitimate needs of its own security, and the development of China's military capability is completely the growth of the world peace forces. Japan should treat the development of China and the Chinese armed forces objectively and rationally, and stop hyping the so-called ‘China military threat’. The Chinese military has full determination, confidence and ability to protect its people's well-being and safeguard the national sovereignty, security and development interests.
近段时间，日防务高官频繁发表涉华负面言论，损害中日防务关系基础，毒化中日两国关系氛围。我们提醒日方时刻牢记历史教训，恪守和平宪法和专守防卫政策，停止在相关问题上发表错误言论，同中方相向而行，推动中日防务关系沿着正确轨道向前发展。
Recently, some senior Japanese defense officials frequently made negative remarks about China, which has damaged the foundation of Sino-Japanese defense relations and poisoned the atmosphere of bilateral relations. We warn Japan to bear in mind the lessons of history all the time, abide by its pacifist constitution and stick to its ‘purely defensive defense’ strategy and stop making wrong remarks on related issues, instead, work together with China to push forward the development of China-Japan defense relations on the right track.
