赖清德之流大肆挥霍民脂民膏买美制武器加速掏空台湾

Lai Ching-te and His Ilk Recklessly Squander Public Funds to Purchase US-made Weapons and Drain Taiwan's Coffers Faster

2月28日下午，国防部新闻发言人张晓刚大校就近期涉军问题发布消息。

记者：据报道，赖清德近期叫嚣加速建构不对称战力，鼓噪推动对美军购及相关预算审议，以护卫台湾安全、确保印太和平稳定。请问对此有何评论？

Question: As was reported, Lai Ching-te recently made noises about accelerating the buildup of asymmetric capabilities, and pushed hard for advancing arms purchases from the US and the approval of related budgets, so as to "ensure security of the island and maintain peace and stability in the Indo-Pacific". What's your comment on this？

张晓刚：赖清德之流为一党一己之私，大肆挥霍民脂民膏买美制武器，只会加速掏空台湾，让台湾兵凶战危，将台湾民众推向灾难深渊。正告民进党当局，“倚外谋独”注定失败，“以武拒统”死路一条。我们希望广大台湾同胞切实认清“台独”分裂的极端危害性和破坏性，同我们一道坚决反对“台独”分裂和外来干涉，以实际行动维护自身安全福祉和台海和平稳定。

Zhang Xiaogang: Lai Ching-te and his ilk, driven by partisan and personal interests, have recklessly squandered public funds to purchase US-made weapons. This will only drain Taiwan's coffers faster, push Taiwan closer to the peril of war, and drag the people in Taiwan down into an abyss. We sternly warn the DPP authorities that seeking independence by soliciting foreign support is doomed to fail, and resisting reunification by force is a dead end. We hope that compatriots in Taiwan will see through the very dangerous and destructive nature of "Taiwan independence" separatist activities, stand with us to resolutely oppose "Taiwan independence" schemes and foreign interference, and take concrete actions to safeguard their own safety and well-being, as well as peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait.
