At the 21st IISS Shangri-La Dialogue in Singapore on Sunday, Chinese Defense Minister Dong Jun delivered a speech on China's Approach to Global Security, emphasizing China's firm stance on Taiwan. He stated that China would 'act resolutely and forcefully' to stop Taiwan's independence and warned that anyone attempting to separate Taiwan from China would face severe consequences. Dong Jun criticized the US for 'hollowing out' Beijing's One China policy and misleading countries in the South China Sea. He also highlighted China's commitment to peaceful reunification with Taiwan but noted that this possibility is being eroded by separatists and foreign forces. Furthermore, Dong Jun asserted that China would not allow hegemonism, power politics, or geoconflicts to harm the Asia-Pacific region and advocated resolving divergences through negotiation.
