Mainland slams Lai Ching-te for remarks undermining peace, escalating tensions

China Daily  

BEIJING -- A Chinese mainland spokesperson on Wednesday condemned recent remarks made by Lai Ching-te, leader of the Taiwan region, as an attempt to undermine peace and escalate tensions between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait. While claiming to seek peace and stability in the Strait, Lai has maintained a separatist stance of "Taiwan independence," fueled separatism, sabotaged peace, and hindered cross-Strait exchange, said Zhu Fenglian, spokesperson for the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office. Zhu reiterated that although the two sides of the Strait are not yet fully reunified, the fact that both belong to one China has never changed. Zhu called on the people of Taiwan to work with their mainland peers to oppose "Taiwan independence," safeguard peace and stability in the region, and promote cross-Strait exchange and cooperation.
