前几天，法国总统马克龙的中国之行备受国际关注，而在结束访华回国的飞机上，他说的一句话却让有的人坐不住了。
“欧洲不当美国跟班”
据《政客》网站报道，在回国飞机上，马克龙接受了媒体的采访，他表示，欧洲应该减少对美国的依赖程度，并且避免在台湾问题上卷入中美之间的对抗。
《政客》：马克龙称，欧洲必须顶住压力，不当美国跟班
马克龙在采访中表示，欧洲面临的巨大风险在于卷入并不属于自己的危机之中
Europe must reduce its dependency on the United States and avoid getting dragged into a confrontation between China and the U.S. over Taiwan, French President Emmanuel Macron said in an interview on his plane back from a three-day state visit to China.
“矛盾的地方在于，出于恐惧，我们认为自己就是美国的跟班，”马克龙在采访中说，“而欧洲人需要回答的问题是，给‘台湾危机’火上浇油符合我们的利益吗？并不。”
“The paradox would be that, overcome with panic, we believe we are just America’s followers,” Macron said in the interview. “The question Europeans need to answer … is it in our interest to accelerate [a crisis] on Taiwan? No. ”
“如果两个超级大国之间的关系越来越紧张……我们将没有时间也没有资源来支撑我们的战略自主，我们将成为附庸。”
“If the tensions between the two superpowers heat up … we won’t have the time nor the resources to finance our strategic autonomy and we will become vassals,” he said.
此外，马克龙还说，欧洲在武器方面更加依赖美国，现在必须集中精力推动欧洲自身国防工业发展。马克龙还建议欧洲减少对“美元治外法权”的依赖。
Macron also argued that Europe had increased its dependency on the U.S. for weapons and must now focus on boosting European defense industries. He also suggested Europe should reduce its dependence on the “extraterritoriality of the U.S. dollar”.
马克龙的这一套“组合拳”下来，可谓一石激起千层浪。随后就有外媒援引所谓“外交专家”、“政界人士”的社交媒体称，马克龙的言论“备受批评”“引起公愤”云云。
然而实际上，我们看看这言论，就知道他们到底在“批评”什么了。
比如多家外媒都注意到了美国的共和党参议员卢比奥的言论，他在推特上质问马克龙“是否代表欧洲”，并宣称如果“欧洲不在台湾问题上选边站”，那么美国也不会在乌克兰问题上选边站，美国将会把注意力放在所谓“中国威胁”上，“你们自己去处理乌克兰和欧洲”。
US Senator Marco Rubio released a video of over two minutes, in which he repeatedly questioned whether Macron speaks for all of Europe and stated that if Europe is not going to pick sides over the Taiwan question, the US will focus on the "threats China poses" and "you guys handle Ukraine and Europe."
值得注意的是，卢比奥此前多次发表反华言论。在2020年8月，中方决定对在涉港问题上表现恶劣的11名美方人士实施制裁，其中就包括卢比奥。
以“反华急先锋”的言论来批评马克龙的“战略自主”，美国政客的面目昭然若揭。
But the dissatisfaction of the Americans with Macron reveals the true face of the US.

4月10日，外交部发言人汪文斌主持例行记者会，在回答法新社记者提问时汪文斌表示：
台湾问题纯属中国内政，一个中国原则是国际社会普遍共识和国际关系基本准则。当前台海和平的最大威胁是“台独”分裂活动和美方对其的纵容支持。我们希望各国认清台湾问题的实质，继续恪守一个中国原则，坚定反对各种形式的“台独”分裂活动。
The Taiwan question is entirely China’s internal affair. The one-China principle is a prevailing consensus of the international community and a basic norm in international relations. The biggest threat to peace in the Taiwan Strait is the “Taiwan independence” separatist activities and the US connivance at and support for them. We hope that all countries will see clearly what the Taiwan question is truly about, continue to abide by the one-China principle and firmly oppose all forms of “Taiwan independence” separatist activities.
