Overseas Chinese in Latin America back China's
Anti-Secession Law
Overseas Chinese associations and groups in
Argentina, Venezuela and Colombia on Monday expressed support for the
newly adopted Anti-Secession Law in China.
In Argentina, 19 overseas Chinese associations, led by the Council for
Promotion of Peaceful Reunification of China in Argentina, issued a
joint statement voicing support for the Anti-Secession Law.
"We firmly support the Anti-Secession Law and will try our best to
cooperate with China's mainland to actively promote the development of
relations across the Taiwan Strait and the peaceful reunification of
China," said the joint statement.
The adoption of the law demonstrated the strong will of the entire
Chinese people, Taiwan compatriots included, to safeguard China's
sovereignty and territorial integrity and to oppose the "Taiwan
independence" secessionist forces' attempt to make Taiwan secede from
China, the statement added.
The Council for Promotion of Peaceful Reunification of China in
Venezuela also expressed support for the law in a statement issued on
Monday.
The law is a necessary and timely measure adopted by the National
People's Congress (NPC) of China at a time when the "Taiwan
independence" secessionist forces become more rampant in alienating the
island from China, the statement said.
Noting that the law is a strong means to safeguard China's sovereignty
and territorial integrity, the council also called on overseas Chinese
to work together for an early reunification of China.
Zheng Yannong, board chairman of a Chinese newspaper in Venezuela, said
in an interview that the law reflects the people's will as it was
adopted with overwhelming support from NPC members.
Zheng, who has lived in Venezuela for 53 years, said the secessionists
who try to separate Taiwan from China are traitors to the Chinese
nation.
Overseas Chinese groups in Colombia also expressed their support for the
Anti-Secession Law in a statement on Monday.
The statement, issued jointly by a Chinese federation in Colombia and
the Council for Promotion of Peaceful Reunification of China in
Colombia, pointed out that the law is the most authoritative one for
safeguarding China's peace and stability and the country's sovereignty
and territorial integrity.
The commitments made in the law fully conform with the interests of the
Chinese people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, and also show the
maximum sincerity of the Chinese government and all the Chinese across
the world for peaceful reunification.
Overseas Chinese in Colombia expressed in the statement their
willingness to work together with Chinese compatriots to promote China's
peaceful reunification.
