中共駐澳大利亞使館發言人詭辯
7月30日，中國駐澳大利亞使館發言人就「澳美日前雙部長會期間發表聯合聲明」發文表態，內容如下：澳美日前雙部長會期間發表聯合聲明，在涉及香港、新疆、南海等問題上對中國無端指責和攻擊。其有關言論罔顧事實，違背國際法和國際關係基本準則，粗暴干涉中國內政，我們對此表示堅決反對和拒絕。
我們重申，中方將繼續堅定維護國家主權、安全和正當權益，堅定維護地區和平穩定。任何對華施壓的圖謀都絕不會得逞。 我們敦促澳方不要在損害中澳關係的道路上越走越遠，真正從自身利益出發，多做有利於兩國互信與合作的事。
We firmly reject and oppose the unfounded accusations and attacks against China on issues related to Hong Kong, Xinjiang and the South China Sea made in the recent Joint Statement of Australia-U.S. Ministerial Consultations (AUSMIN). Their assertions, in disregard of basic facts, violated international law and basic norms governing international relations and grossly interfered in China’s internal affairs.
We reiterate that the Chinese side is unwavering in upholding national sovereignty, security and its legitimate rights and interests. We are firmly committed to maintaining regional peace and stability. Any attempt to pressure China will never succeed.
We urge Australia not to go further on the road of harming China-Australia relations, and truly proceeding from its own interests, do more things that are conducive to mutual trust and cooperation between the two countries.
