日本沖繩縣石垣市議員定于4日向市議會(huì)提交議案，更改中國釣魚島及其附屬島嶼所在地域的名稱，把原來的“登野城”改為“登野城尖閣”。中國外交部發(fā)言人回應(yīng)，無論日方玩弄什么樣的把戲，都改變不了釣魚島屬于中國的事實(shí)。

China said that the proposed name change of the Diaoyu Islands by a Japanese mayor would not change the fact that they belong to China.
中方表示，日本市議員提議為釣魚島改名改變不了釣魚島屬于中國的事實(shí)。

外交部發(fā)言人耿爽在12月4日的例行發(fā)布會(huì)上表示：

釣魚島及其附屬島嶼自古以來就是中國的固有領(lǐng)土，中方維護(hù)領(lǐng)土主權(quán)的決心堅(jiān)定不移。
The Diaoyu Island and its affiliated islands have always been an inherent part of Chinese territory. China's determination to safeguard its territorial sovereignty remains unshakable.

無論日方玩弄什么樣的把戲，都改變不了釣魚島屬于中國的事實(shí)。
Whatever tricks the Japanese side may like to play, they cannot change the fact that the Diaoyu Island belongs to China.

我們敦促日方正視歷史和現(xiàn)實(shí)，停止在這一問題上制造事端，避免損害兩國關(guān)系改善的勢(shì)頭。
We urge the Japanese side to face this history and fact squarely, stop using this issue to make trouble, and avoid sabotaging a burgeoning positive momentum in the bilateral relations.
