In response to a media inquiry on US President Donald Trump's remarks related to "unification" when commenting on the ongoing trade negotiations between the US and China, which have drawn high attention in the Taiwan island, Chen Binhua, a spokesperson of the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, said that"we have taken note of the relevant reports."

国务院台湾事务办公室发言人陈斌华，在回答媒体有关美国总统特朗普提到台湾岛内引起高度关注的中美贸易谈判且有关“统一 ”言论的提问时表示，“我们已经注意到了相关报道”。

We hope the international community will gain a broader understanding of and support the just cause of the Chinese people in opposing“Taiwan independence”separatist activities and striving to achieve national reunification, Chen said.

陈斌华说，我们希望国际社会能够更广泛地理解并支持中国人民反对“台独”分裂活动、争取实现国家统一的正义事业。
