Chinese Defence Minister Dong Jun speaks at the Shangri-la Dialogue in Singapore, June 2, 2024.SINGAPORE — The prospect of peaceful "reunification" with Taiwan is being increasingly "eroded" by Taiwanese separatists and external forces, Chinese Defence Minister Dong Jun said on Sunday , promising to ensure independence never happens.

"Those separatists recently made fanatical statements that show their betrayal of the Chinese nation and their ancestors. They will be nailed to the pillar of shame in history," he said. China has been repeatedly angered by US support for Taiwan, even in the absence of formal diplomatic ties, such as arms sales."They are selling a lot of weapons to Taiwan. This kind of behaviour sends very wrong signals to the Taiwan independence forces and makes them become very aggressive. I think we are clear that the foreign power's true purpose is to use Taiwan to contain China.
