cailian news agency reported on august 31 that recently, in response to the hype of some foreign media on the content of the 53rd pacific islands forum communiqué involving taiwan, qian bo, the chinese government's special envoy for pacific island affairs, responded in nuku'alofa, the capital of tonga. qian bo emphasized that taiwan is a part of china in terms of history, legal principles and reality. there is only one china in the world, and the government of the people's republic of china is the only legitimate government representing all of china. taiwan is neither a sovereign state nor a dialogue partner of the pacific islands forum. for many years, the taiwan authorities have been using the 1992 forum communiqué as an excuse to "crash" during the pacific islands forum leaders' meeting to show their presence. this behavior has seriously interfered with and disrupted the island countries and dialogue partners from focusing on issues that really concern the island countries. it is unpopular and futile. qian bo said that the content of the 1992 forum communiqué involving taiwan violates the one-china principle, and china opposes this. more than 30 years have passed, and the situation in the island countries has changed greatly. china has established diplomatic relations with 11 of the 14 pacific island countries in the forum. these countries all adhere to the one-china principle and believe that taiwan is part of china. china believes that the forum should make corresponding changes and the content of the forum's 1992 communiqué should be reviewed. the solomon islands' proposal for forum reform meets the expectations of most island countries. qian bo finally pointed out that many island leaders and the forum secretariat have told china that the inclusion of taiwan-related statements in the forum communiqué is a complete mistake. the draft communiqué has never included any taiwan-related statements, and there was no discussion on this during the forum leaders' meeting, let alone a consensus. the leaders of the forum's "troika", tonga, the cook islands, and the solomon islands, have made a unanimous decision to delete the relevant taiwan-related statements in the communiqué, and china appreciates this. at present, the forum secretariat has released the correct version of the communiqué.
