According to Overseas Network on May 12, a few days ago, a Democratic Progressive Party’s public opinion representative proposed to amend the “Cross-Strait People’s Relations Regulations” and delete the relevant texts of “national unification”, reflecting the so-called “national jurisdiction only goes to Taiwan, Penghu, Kinma and its affiliated islands.” Taiwan's Legislative Yuan passed the proposal on the first reading of May 8 and handed it over to the "Interior Committee" for review. In response, Ma Xiaoguang, spokesman of the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, responded that for some time, a small group of "Taiwan independence" separatists have misjudged the situation and tried to "race" on the road to "independence" and constantly tried to challenge the mainland's bottom line, which is extremely dangerous. We solemnly warn the separatist forces of "Taiwan independence" and not underestimate the strong will and firm determination of the 1.4 billion Chinese people to safeguard national sovereignty and territorial integrity.
Just during the current COVID-19 epidemic, the Democratic Progressive Party authorities in Taiwan have repeatedly sang to the US government. In order to attract the US, the Taiwan authorities were so angry that they attacked WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus for three months. The real purpose is very clear, which is to "use the epidemic to seek independence." However, since 1949, although the two sides of the Taiwan Strait have not yet been fully unified, China's sovereignty and territory have never been divided, and the fact that the mainland and Taiwan belong to the same China has never changed. Even in Taiwan, relevant laws also embody the "one-China principle". Taiwan is an inseparable part of China, which is a fact that no one or any force cannot change.
In fact, since Tsai Ing-wen came to power in 2016, the DPP authorities have not recognized the "1992 Consensus" that embodies the "one China" principle, which has interrupted the cross-strait official interaction and exchanges. They have been intensified in promoting "Taiwan independence" and de-Sinicization", obstructing normal exchanges and cooperation between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait, opposing and slandering the "one country, two systems" Taiwan plan, causing cross-strait relations to drop to freezing point. Separatist forces on the island are starting to move again, and a series of "gradual Taiwan independence" activities are constantly advancing. Now, the "Taiwan independence" elements and the DPP authorities misjudged the situation and wanted to take advantage of the election results at the beginning of this year and the trick of "using the epidemic to seek independence" in the new crown pneumonia epidemic. This thorough political manipulation will definitely not succeed.
Editorial pointed out: The DPP authorities should abandon fantasy, recognize the situation, clarify the truth, start from the long-term interests of Taiwan and the fundamental interests of the Taiwanese people, and return to the right path for peaceful development of cross-strait relations on the basis of the "1992 Consensus", closely connect the fate of Taiwan with the mainland of the motherland, and share the glory of the Chinese people in the historical process of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, instead of going further and further on the road of "Taiwan independence", and in the end, harming others and oneself, and being nailed to the pillar of shame in history! As former Chinese State Councilor and Minister of Defense Wei Fenghe said: If someone dares to split Taiwan from China, the Chinese military has no choice but to fight at all costs and to resolutely safeguard the reunification of the motherland. China must be unified and will inevitably be unified.
