中国驻斐济使馆注意到一些媒体报道10月8日台北驻斐济商务办事处举办活动场所外发生的事情。报道中对中国使馆工作人员的指责与事实完全不符，纯属颠倒黑白、倒打一耙。
事实真相是，台北驻斐济商务办事处于10月8日在公共场合公然举行所谓“双十国庆日”活动。上述行为不仅严重违背一个中国原则，还违反了斐济政府对台机构活动的相关规定。台此举意在国际上制造“两个中国”或“一中一台”局面。当晚，台机构人员对在同一酒店公共区域正常执行公务的中国使馆工作人员发起言语挑衅和肢体冲突，造成一名中国外交官身体受伤、物品受损。中国驻斐济使馆已就上述事件向斐方表达严重关切，要求斐济警方对此事进行彻查，并依法追究台方人员责任。
需要指出的是，世界上只有一个中国，中华人民共和国政府是代表全中国的唯一合法政府，台湾是中国领土不可分割的一部分。这不仅为联合国决议所确认，也是国际社会的普遍共识。坚持一个中国原则是人心所向、大势所趋。中方高度赞赏斐济政府坚持一个中国原则，相信斐方能公正、妥善处理此事。
A Chinese diplomat in Fiji was injured earlier this month after a Taipei Trade Office employee provoked embassy staff at a local hotel, the Chinese Embassy in Fiji said on Monday.
The Taipei Trade Office in Fiji held a so-called National Day event at the Grand Pacific Hotel in Suva on October 8, a move that violates the one-China principle as it sought to create "two Chinas" or "one China, one Taiwan" internationally, the embassy said in a statement.
The staff from the trade office "acted provocatively against the Chinese Embassy staff who were carrying out their official duties in the public area outside the function venue, causing damage and injuries to one Chinese diplomat," it said.
"We have expressed our serious concerns to the Fijian side about the above incidents, requesting the Police Force of Fiji to carry out thorough investigation into the incidents and hold the perpetrators accountable according to law."
Earlier, a Reuters report said two Chinese diplomats attacked an official from the Taipei office who ended up in the hospital.
"There is only one China in the world, and the government of the People's Republic of China is the sole legitimate government representing the whole of China. Taiwan is an inalienable part of China's territory," the embassy said.
China and the Pacific island country established diplomatic relations in 1975.
According to official Chinese data, the bilateral trade reached over $482 million in 2018, representing a 26-percent increase from the year before.
China highly appreciates the Fijian government for upholding the one-China principle and expects that the Fijian side will tackle this issue properly, the embassy said.
Foreign Ministry: Taiwan is playing the trick of a thief crying 'stop thief'
The Chinese Foreign Ministry on Monday said Taiwan is playing the trick of a thief crying "stop thief," and stressed that any attempt to use the Taiwan issue to provoke ties between China and Pacific island countries will not succeed.
There is no "diplomatic relationship" between Taiwan and Fiji, said spokesperson Zhao Lijian. The Fijian government has always adhered to the one-China principle, and it urged Taiwan's business institution to stop creating "two Chinas" and "one China, one Taiwan" in 2019, which China highly appreciates, he said.
Zhao reiterated that there is only one China in the world and Taiwan is an inalienable part of China's territory.
