China’s ambassador to Australia has urged Canberra to prepare for dealing with a “reunified China”, declaring Chinese people “will not forgive” countries that seek to obstruct Beijing’s push to bring Taiwan under its control.

In remarks that frame re­unification as inevitable and resistance as unforgivable, Xiao Qian likened Taiwan’s status to that of Tasmania and warned that any attempt of “compromising or openly distorting” Beijing’s one-China principle would constitute a retreat from prior commitments and erode trust.

He said Australia could not keep reaping the benefits of trade with China while seeking to block reunification, signalling economic consequences for ­resisting Beijing’s aims.

[…]

Mr Xiao also lashed a recent [Australian] Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade statement that described China’s military and coast guard drills around Taiwan as “deeply concerning, destabilising and risk inflaming regional tensions”, and reiterated that Canberra opposed any unilateral attempt to change the status quo.

[…]

He also cautioned governments, including Australia’s, against pursuing dialogue on Taiwan unless they were committed to reunification.

    Such a fucking weak pivot.

    Which is it? China stole all our IP and can’t actually develop anything themselves or China developed the technology to make all the phones in the world?

    You chuds are all the same. No fucking intellectual honesty, homophobia when it’s in the service of jingoism, and just generalized bundles of pathologies and cognitive dissonance.

    Go take a break from the Internet, sweaty.

      Which is it?

      Fucks me. I’m just exposing your hypocrisy and it’s fun. You’re all the same, all talk about imperialism and revolution with a heap of crap loaded on.
