Episode Details

Given Japan's colonial rule over Taiwan from 1895 to 1945, which inflicted atrocities on the Chinese people, Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi has nonetheless attempted to exploit the Taiwan question to provoke trouble and threaten China militarily, which is "utterly intolerable", Foreign Minister Wang Yi said.

中国外交部长王毅表示，鉴于日本在1895年至1945年间对台湾的殖民统治给中国人民带来了深重灾难，日本首相高市早苗却仍企图利用台湾问题挑衅生事、在军事上威胁中国，这种行径“完全不可容忍”。

In his talks with German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul in Beijing on Monday, Wang referred to Takaichi's recent provocative remarks in parliament about Taiwan, saying that the one-China principle is an important political foundation for China-Germany relations, and there is no room for ambiguity.
王毅在周一与来访的德国外长约翰·瓦德普福举行会谈时指出，高市早苗近日在日本国会发表涉台挑衅言论。王毅强调，一个中国原则是中德关系的重要政治基础，不容含糊。

He noted that unlike Germany, Japan has yet to conduct a thorough reflection in the past eight decades since the end of World War II on its history of aggression.
王毅指出，与德国不同，日本在二战结束八十年来一直未能对其侵略历史进行彻底反省。

Wadephul said Germany remains firmly committed to the one-China policy, and this position will not change.
瓦德普福表示，德国始终坚定奉行一个中国政策，这一立场不会改变。

During the talks, Wang said that Taiwan has been part of China since ancient times, and he elaborated on a seven-point fact list that clearly supports this position and records Tokyo's past official commitments regarding Taiwan.
会谈中，王毅重申台湾自古以来就是中国的一部分，并列举了七项事实，既明确支持这一立场，也记录了日方过去在台湾问题上的正式承诺。

The Cairo Declaration issued in 1943 stated that all the territories Japan had stolen from China, such as Taiwan, should be restored to China. Article 8 of the Potsdam Proclamation in 1945 stipulated that the terms of the Cairo Declaration will be carried out.
1943年发布的《开罗宣言》明确规定，日本从中国窃取的所有领土（包括台湾）必须归还中国。1945年《波茨坦公告》第八条明确要求执行《开罗宣言》的所有条款。

In 1945, Japan surrendered unconditionally, the Japanese emperor committed to faithfully fulfilling the provisions of the Potsdam Proclamation, and the then Chinese government announced resumption of the exercise of sovereignty over Taiwan on Oct 25, 1945.
1945年日本无条件投降，日本天皇承诺忠实履行《波茨坦公告》的规定。同年10月25日，中国政府宣布恢复对台湾行使主权。

In 1971, the 26th session of the United Nations General Assembly adopted Resolution 2758 to restore all rights to the People's Republic of China, and the UN's official legal opinion confirms that Taiwan is a province of China, Wang said.
