The Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council held a regular press conference. A reporter asked: Recently, Taiwanese compatriots were involved in a car accident near Russia's Irkutsk region. As soon as the Chinese Consulate General in Irkutsk learned about it, it helped the wounded go to the local hospital for treatment, and visited and paid tribute to the injured Taiwanese compatriots. Any comments on this please? Spokesman Zhang Han said that after receiving a request for help from Taiwanese compatriots late at night, the Chinese Consulate General in Irkutsk immediately coordinated local hospitals to dispatch ambulances to carry out the rescue, and visited and paid tribute to the seriously injured Taiwanese compatriots. Currently, the injured Taiwanese compatriots are in stable condition. Our compatriots on both sides of the Strait are Chinese, and it is our duty to provide consular protection and assistance to Chinese citizens, including our Taiwanese compatriots, abroad.
