国防部：美肆意部署“堤丰”中导系统拱火搅局

The MND: US Willful Deployment of Typhon Mid-range Missile System only Stirs up Troubles

10月31日下午，国防部举行例行记者会，国防部新闻发言人张晓刚大校答记者问。

记者：据报道，菲参议院外委会主席近日在出席菲媒体论坛时，公开反对美在菲部署“堤丰”中导系统。请问发言人有何评论？

Question: It is reported that the Chairman of the Philippine Senate Foreign Relations Committee openly opposed US deployment of Typhon mid-range missile system in the Philippines during her attendance at a recent media forum. May I have your comment?

张晓刚：中方多次表明坚决反对美在菲部署中导系统的严正立场。美国撕毁《中导条约》，研制“堤丰”中导系统，将其当成维霸工具，肆意部署拱火搅局，把相关地区置于战争风险之中，一再表明美是不折不扣的和平破坏者、冲突肇事者。

Zhang Xiaogang: China has repeatedly expressed our firm opposition to US deployment of mid-range missile system in the Philippines. The US has withdrawn from the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty, developed Typhon mid-range missile system, and used it as a tool to maintain its hegemony. It has made willful deployment and stirred up troubles, which increased the risk of war in the region. It has been proven time and again that the US is a real saboteur to peace and a troublemaker.

实际上，菲国内有识之士一直都在反对美部署“堤丰”中导系统，菲政府应认真倾听民意呼声，认清这一问题的高度敏感性和严重危害性，停止这一损人害己的危险举动，不要把自己绑上美国战车，给别人当炮灰。

In fact, many people in the Philippines oppose US deployment of Typhon mid-range missile system. The Philippine government needs to listen to the voices of its people, fully recognize the high sensitivity and grave consequences of this issue, and stop such dangerous behavior which will hurt others as well as herself. It should not tie herself to the US war chariot and end up being cannon fodders.
