Separatist stances in Taiwan root cause of the severe situation in Taiwan Strait

China Daily  

The Democratic Progressive Party's stubborn "Taiwan independence" separatist stance, their refusal to acknowledge the "1992 Consensus" and continual provocations with attempts to seek "independence" in collusion with external forces are the root cause of the current complex and severe situation in the Taiwan Strait, Chen Binhua, a spokesman for the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office, said on Monday. Chen noted that in today's speech, the island's leader stubbornly maintained a "Taiwan independence" stance, extensively propagated separatist fallacies, incited cross-Strait opposition and confrontation, and attempted to "seek independence by relying on external forces" and "seek independence by using military force". Taiwan's leader, disregarding public opinion and going against the current, has sent out a dangerous signal of provocation by seeking "independence" and undermining peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait. "We will unswervingly adhere to the one-China principle and the '1992 Consensus', unite the broad masses of Taiwan compatriots, strive to promote the peaceful and integrated development of cross-Strait relations, and firmly advance the cause of national reunification," he said.
