Cao said to safeguard China's sovereignty and territorial integrity and realize the complete reunification of the country is the core interest of China and the Chinese nation.

"We will resolutely implement the policies and principles of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC) with regard to the settlement of the Taiwan question, continue to exert our utmost with the greatest sincerity to promote the peaceful development of the cross-Straits relations, and work for the prospect of peaceful reunification," Cao said.

Meanwhile, Cao said the PLA is determined to fulfill the sacred duty of safeguarding China's sovereignty, territorial integrity and security.

"We will never tolerate 'Taiwan Independence' and will never allow the secessionist forces seeking 'Taiwan Independence' to make Taiwan secede from the motherland by any means or under any pretext," Cao stressed.

"Peace, development and cooperation are the general trend in the world today, and the overall international environment remains one of peace and stability," Cao said, noting that on the other hand, uncertainty and instability affecting peace and development remain a source of concern, and the human society is faced with new challenges.

"The PLA will remain a staunch force in maintaining world peace, promoting common development and building a harmonious world," said Cao.
