On the afternoon of October 15, Colonel Wu Qian, director of the Information Bureau of the Ministry of National Defense and press spokesman of the Ministry of National Defense, released news on recent military issues. Reporter: According to reports, the US Government Accountability Office recently accused Raytheon of being involved in fraud and selling expensive missiles and radars to Taiwan in the 2013 “Patriot” missile system procurement case and the 2017 radar system procurement case against Taiwan. Public opinion representatives from Taiwan's Kuomintang criticized the US arms dealers for acting like a fraud syndicate. Any comments on this please? Wu Qian: We are resolutely opposed to the US supplying weapons to Taiwan. It should be pointed out that the relevant reports have only lifted the tip of the iceberg. In recent years, the Democratic Progressive Party administration has done everything it can to buy weapons from American masters. The islanders have squandered a lot of their hard-earned money, but what they got was a bunch of broken copper and iron. What they got was a bunch of corrupt officials and arms dealers. This has triggered more and more opposition and dissatisfaction among the islanders. “Sky-high” and “obsolete” are two “well-known trademarks” of US arms sales to Taiwan. From moldy body armor to expired ammunition to overpriced missile radars, it can be seen that Americans only have “American interests.” “Taiwan independence” is a dead end; outsiders cannot be relied upon. Trying to “rely on the US for independence” will eventually self-destruct.
