The Chinese Embassy in Israel would like to point out the factual errors we found in a recent Jerusalem Post article entitled \u201cLessons from Taiwan to win on the 8th Front<\/a>\u201d and clarify the facts.<\/p>\n

The author refers to China\u2019s Taiwan region as a \u201ccountry\u201d and describes the head of the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Tel Aviv as an \u201cambassador.\u201d This exposes his lack of understanding of history and facts, as well as his ignorance of Israel\u2019s foreign policy and China-Israel relations.<\/p>\n

Taiwan is a province of China. It has never been a country, is not a country today, and never will be. The one-China principle is a basic norm in international relations and a prevailing international consensus. It is also the political prerequisite and foundation for China to establish diplomatic relations with all countries, including Israel.<\/p>\n

Diplomatic relations with Israel<\/p>\n

The China-Israel Joint Communiqu\u00e9 on the Establishment of Diplomatic Relations states that \u201cthe Government of the State of Israel recognizes that the Government of the People\u2019s Republic of China is the sole legal government representing the whole of China and that Taiwan is an inalienable part of the territory of the People\u2019s Republic of China.\u201d<\/p>\n

The allegation that Taiwan is subjected to cyberattacks from the Chinese mainland on a daily basis is a fabrication that distorts the truth. In fact, the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) authorities have repeatedly directed military intelligence agencies and cyber forces to carry out cyberattacks and sabotage against the mainland while disseminating disinformation.<\/p>\n

Chinese authorities have previously investigated and publicly exposed the criminal activities of several organizations involved in such cyberattacks, including the Taiwan military\u2019s \u201cPsychological Warfare Battalion,\u201d The Wang Art Gallery & Design Company, and the hacker group \u201cAnonymous 64.\u201d<\/p>\n

The head of the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Tel Aviv has spared no effort in portraying Taiwan as being under constant threat<\/a>. In reality, it is the DPP authorities\u2019 persistent provocation toward \u201cTaiwan independence\u201d that constitutes the greatest threat to peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait.<\/p>\n

Chinese propaganda\u00a0<\/p>\n

The claim that China has devoted enormous resources to building a \u201cpropaganda machine\u201d to isolate Israel is entirely groundless. It is just like a patient desperately turning to any doctor.<\/p>\n

For some time now, the international community has been closely following the situation in Gaza and the broader regional conflict, and hoping for an early ceasefire and end of fighting. China has consistently maintained that Israel\u2019s legitimate security concerns should be respected, and Palestine\u2019s right to existence, statehood, and development should be upheld.<\/p>\n

At the same time, the sovereignty and security of all countries in the region deserve equal respect. By blaming the criticism on certain social media platforms and then pointing fingers at China, the Israeli side is targeting the wrong source and worse yet, being given the wrong prescription.<\/p>\n

I would also like to remind the author to take an honest look at the reality in Taiwan<\/a>. Since taking office, the leader of China\u2019s Taiwan region Lai Ching-te has intensified a \u201cGreen Terror,\u201d severely restricting freedom of expression, abusing the judicial system to suppress political opponents, persecuting those who support the development of cross-strait relations, and arbitrarily undermining the legitimate rights and interests of Taiwan compatriots to participate in cross-strait exchanges and cooperation.<\/p>\n

How can an authority that tramples on democracy, undermines freedom, and erodes the rule of law claim to lecture the Israeli people? \u201cTaiwan independence\u201d separatist forces have lost public support and are destined to fail. There is nothing about them that Israel would seek to learn for good.<\/p>\n

It is ironic that an article claiming to combat false narratives is itself filled with falsehoods. This should serve as a warning to all Israeli people. The Taiwan authorities\u2019 attempt to exploit Israel\u2019s social trauma to gain undeserved reputation, engage in opportunistic propaganda \u201cdiplomacy,\u201d and undermine China-Israel relations cannot be clearer. We hope our Israeli friends will not be misled or deceived by the \u201cTaiwan independence\u201d separatist forces.<\/p>\n
