INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
The so-called 10 lectures on unity provided by Taiwan local leader Lai Ching-te have again exposed his ominous intent to count on foreign
forces to seek Taiwan independence and use military means to pursue independence, a mainland representative stated on Wednesday.Chen
Binhua, representative for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, made the remarks in response to concerns regarding Lais recent
address, in which he touched upon cross-Straits relations
He stated Lais remarks run counter to the traditional public opinion on the island of Taiwan, which desires peace and advancement,
neglecting the security and well-being of the Taiwan compatriots.Chen included that Lai is stubborn on the path of selling out and ruining
Taiwan in the name of independence, intentionally inciting cross-Straits antagonism and endangering the peace and stability of the Taiwan
Straits while identifying Lai as a peace destroyer, an extensive war monger, and a notorious mischief-maker
Lais advocacy of the so-called defend Taiwan, Penghu, Kinmen and Mazu is, in truth, a fight for the interests of the Democratic Progressive
Party (DPP) alone and his fixation with Taiwan self-reliance
He wants to sacrifice innocent civilians by tying them to the Taiwan independence chariot, sending young people to the battleground to
end up being the victims of his separatist scheme, said Chen
He even more criticized Lais fear-mongering about a so-called military threat from the mainland, stating such claims are simply a cover for
his aggressive separatist agenda
Lais remarks about standing with democratic nations were seen as an open plea for external interference, trading Taiwans future for
foreign backing through security charges and political posturing.The representative restated the firm stance of the mainland that Taiwan
self-reliance separatism is the best catastrophe to Taiwan
As long as Taiwan independence separatists exist, there will be no peace in the Taiwan Straits
The deeper Lai looks into looking for independence, the more he harms Taiwan
Only by resolutely opposing and efficiently curbing Taiwan self-reliance separatism can we protect genuine peace throughout the straits and
ensure that people in Taiwan can live in peace and security, the spokesperson emphasized.He reaffirmed that both sides of the Taiwan
Straits belong to one China, and that Taiwan, Penghu, Kinmen and Mazu are all part of Chinas sacred territory
The people on both sides of the Taiwan Straits are all Chinese, stated Chen, noting that as long as there is no Taiwan independence
separatism, both sides can share peace and pursue advancement together.Chen stated the mainland will never endure or permit any type of
We have the firm will, strong decision, and effective ability to safeguard national sovereignty and territorial integrity, and to squash
all separatist plots, he said.Chen also called on Taiwan compatriots to see the situation from the viewpoint of nationwide interests and
their own well-being, to stand strongly versus separatism, and to collaborate to preserve peace and stability across the Taiwan Straits.
