/ world today news/ Mainland China is willing to create a wide space for peaceful reunification with Taiwan, but will definitely leave no room for separatist activities aimed at achieving the island’s independence, Chen Binghua, spokesman for the Government Office, said at a briefing yesterday. on Taiwan issues.
His comments were in response to recent remarks by Lai Ching-te and Xiao Bi-kim, politicians from Taiwan’s ruling Democratic Progressive Party, on cross-strait relations, in which they opined that there is no timetable from Beijing for military campaign against Taiwan.
“We will neither tolerate nor show leniency to separatist forces if they dare to take risks and provoke incidents promoting Taiwan’s independence,” Chen said, citing the Anti-Secession Law, which stipulates that the state use “non-violent means and other necessary measures to protect China’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.”
“I want to emphasize that Taiwan independence means war. Lai and Xiao, both representatives of the separatist camp, have distorted the facts and played down the harm and danger of the island’s independence efforts to mislead voters in the 2024 Taiwan leadership election,” Chen Binghua said.
He called on the people of Taiwan to oppose the island’s independence and to help return cross-strait relations to the path of peaceful development.
