    Xi says China will not let security, sovereignty interests be undermined

    BEIJING (Reuters) – President Xi Jinping said on Friday that China will never allow its sovereignty, security and development interests to be undermined, and that the Chinese people are not to be trifled with.


    Any act of unilateralism, monopolism and bullying would not work, and would only lead to a dead end, Xi said in a speech at the Great Hall of the People.


    “Let the world know that ‘the people of China are now organised, and are not to be trifled with,” Xi said, quoting Mao Zedong, the founding father of the People’s Republic of China.


    Xi was speaking on the 70th anniversary of the deployment of Chinese troops to the Korean peninsula to help North Korea fight U.S.-led United Nations and South Korean forces during the 1950-53 war.


    Xi did not directly refer to the present-day United States, whose ties with China have sunk to their lowest in decades amid disputes with the government of President Donald Trump.


    The world’s two biggest economies have clashed over issues ranging from trade, technological and security rivalry to human rights and the coronavirus.


    Xi also called to expedite the modernisation of the country’s defence and armed forces.


    “Without a strong army, there can be no strong motherland,” he said.


    U.S. TENSIONS


    North Korea went to war in 1950 with the South, which was backed by United Nations forces comprising mainly U.S. troops.


    In October 1950, Chinese troops crossed the Yalu River on the border with North Korea while the Soviets provided air cover.


    Stressing the geopolitical importance of North Korea, Mao said: “If the lips are gone, so will the teeth grow cold.”


    The Korean War ended in an armistice in 1953, rather than a peace treaty, leaving the peninsula in a technical state of war.


    Over 2 million Chinese troops were deployed.


    “After arduous battles, Chinese and Korean troops, armed to their teeth, defeated their opponents, shattering the myth of the invincibility of the U.S. military, and forcing the invaders to sign the armistice agreement on July 27, 1953,” Xi said.


    Earlier this week, the United States approved the potential sale of weapons systems to Taiwan with a total value of $1.8 billion, angering China.


    Beijing considers Taiwan a wayward province it has vowed to bring under control, by force if necessary. Washington is required by law to provide the island with the means to defend itself.

    Read the speech on China Daily.

    Xi delivers speech on War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea

    President Xi Jinping delivered an important speech at a grand gathering in Beijing on Friday that commemorated the 70th anniversary of the Chinese People's Volunteers army entering the Democratic People's Republic of Korea to help in the war to resist US aggression.


    Here are the highlights:


    Historic significance of the war


    - Lauding CPV's great patriotism; Paying tribute to revolutionary forefathers


    - The great war defied the invasion and expansion of imperialism and safeguarded the security of New China; It also safeguarded the peaceful life of the Chinese people, stabilized the situation in the Korean Peninsula and upheld peace in Asia and the world; The great victory of the war will be forever etched in the history of the Chinese nation and the history of peace, development and progress of humankind.


    - Over 197,000 Chinese people had died in the war


    - Chinese and DPRK people and armies went through thick and thin, forging great friendship with blood in the war.


    - All peace-loving countries and people, and friendly organizations and personnel in the world gave their firm support and assistance to the CPV entering the Korean front in the war. On behalf of the Party, the government and the army of China, I express heartfelt thanks to them.


    - CPV's entry into Korean front a just move of an army for justice

    - The forces of China and the Democratic People's Republic of Korea defeated their armed-to-teeth rival and shattered the myth of invincibility of the US army.


    -The great victory of the war is a declaration that the Chinese people have stood firm in the East, and an important milestone in the Chinese nation's march toward the great rejuvenation.


    - The war smashed aggressors' plot to nip New China in the bud and fully demonstrated the iron-clad will of the Chinese people to defy hegemony.


    - After winning the war, Chinese people completely got rid of the label of the "Sick Man of East Asia."


    - The victory of the war fully demonstrates the Chinese people's solidarity and tenacity and resolve to safeguard world peace, laid solid foundation for New China's important status in Asia and international affairs, greatly advanced the modernization of the national defense and the armed forces.


    - The victory of the war has shown that justice is sure to prevail over power

    Passing down spirit of CPV through generations


    - It is necessary to speak to invaders in the language they know: that is, a war must be fought to deter invasion, and violence must be met by violence.


    - A victory is needed to win peace and respect.


    - The Chinese nation will never cower before threats, or be subdued by suppression.


    - We need to pool the formidable national strength that unites all, regardless of how times may evolve.


    - We need to promote the national wisdom of keeping to the right path, making innovations, and striving to march forward.

    The Chinese people are well aware that when dealing with aggressors, they have to talk to them in a language they understand. This is to stop wars with war, stop wars with force, win peace and win respect with victory. The Chinese people do not cause troubles and are not afraid of them. In the face of any difficulties and risks, their calves will not tremble and their waists will not bend. The Chinese nation cannot be frightened or crushed!
    The world is the world of the people of all countries. The difficulties and challenges the world faces require the people of all countries to work together and work together to cope with it. Peaceful development and win-win cooperation are the right way in the world. In today's world, any unilateralism, protectionism, and extreme egoism are totally unworkable! Any method of blackmail, blockade, and extreme pressure will simply not work! Any behaviors that do their own way and dominate, any behavior that engages in hegemony, hegemony, and bullying are simply not feasible! Not only doesn't work at all, it must be a dead end!
    A message utterly repugnant to the USA.

    China has always pursued a defensive national defense policy, and the Chinese military has always been a staunch force for maintaining world peace. China will never seek hegemony or expansion, and firmly oppose hegemonism and power politics. We will never sit back and watch the damage to national sovereignty, security, and development interests, and will never allow anyone or any force to invade and divide the sacred territory of the motherland. Once such a serious situation occurs, the Chinese people will surely hit it head-on!

    China should hit back with force. Why was scum like Ted Cruz allowed to go to Hong Kong to protest ? If I was Xi, i would have arrested him. The whole HongKong border should have been tightened up.

    So far China has been mostly bark with minimal bite. The island building and verbal threats to the US navy in the area is somewhat impressive. But they need to take another step. They need to give the Seppo's a diplomatic bloody nose

    Wow this Xi's equivalent to Putins famous Munich security conference speech in 2007. And Putin followed it up by counter attacking the US patsies in Georgia a year later in 2008.

    Lets see if Xi can match it.
