Mainland hints at crackdown on 'stubborn' Taiwan separatists

China Daily  

Taiwan leader Lai Ching-te's persistent adherence to "Taiwan independence" poses a serious challenge to the one-China principle and peace in the Taiwan Strait, and the Chinese mainland will never tolerate such a stance, a mainland spokesman said on Wednesday. The spokesman also called on the United States to handle Taiwan-related affairs properly after Raymond Greene, the new director of the American Institute in Taiwan, said the US will help enhance Taiwan's security and facilitate Lai's "transit" in the US during potential visits to the island's "allies". Sun said that since 2017, the US has intensified its efforts to suppress and encircle China, including actions related to Taiwan that have significantly altered China-US relations and have impacted the Taiwan Strait's stability. Sun criticized the US for not opposing Lai's "two-state" theory, viewing it as a failure to uphold commitments to the one-China policy and non-support for "Taiwan independence".
