Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, February 5th. Lai Ching-te recently promoted the "unobstructed mutual affiliation" of the two sides of the Taiwan Straits when participating in the "Spring Festival Activities of Mainland Taiwan Businessmen", saying that it will continue the cross-strait policy of the so-called "four major persistences". The cross-strait should use "exchange to replace encirclement and dialogue to replace confrontation." In response, Zhu Fenglian, spokesperson of the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, answered questions on the 5th, saying that Lai Ching-te always said that he hoped for peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait, but in fact he stubbornly adhered to the "Taiwan independence" stance, constantly promoted separatist remarks, deliberately undermined peace in the Taiwan Strait, obstructed and restricted cross-strait exchanges, and planned to "rely rely on foreign countries to seek independence" and "use martial arts to seek independence." This remark once again exposed the true face of his "cross-strait peace destroyer" and "Taiwan Strait crisis maker".
She pointed out that although the two sides of the Taiwan Strait have not yet been completely unified, the fact that the mainland and Taiwan belong to the same China and Taiwan is an inseparable part of China has never changed and cannot be changed. Only by adhering to the one-China principle and the "1992 Consensus" can cross-strait relations improve and develop, peace in the Taiwan Strait can be effectively guaranteed, and cross-strait exchanges and dialogues can be carried out smoothly.
Zhu Fenglian said that the starting point and end point of our development of cross-strait relations is to enhance the welfare of our compatriots, but the DPP authorities said that they would do one thing and would harm the interests and welfare of our compatriots in Taiwan for their own political interests. There is no peace in the Taiwan Strait when engaging in "Taiwan independence", and separatism will only harm Taiwan and destroy Taiwan. We hope that the Taiwan compatriots will work with us to resolutely oppose all provocations for seeking "independence", jointly maintain peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait, jointly promote cross-strait exchanges and cooperation, and jointly create a bright future for cross-strait relations and national rejuvenation.
