History has proven and will continue to prove that any attempt to pursue Taiwan secession separatism is doomed to fail, said Chen Binhua, spokesman for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council. Chen made the remarks at a press conference in Beijing on Wednesday, slamming the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) authorities for pursuing secession agenda.
"Perusing Taiwan secession separatism means war, which leads only to a dead end. We have full confidence and capability to crush any attempt at 'de jure Taiwan secession' in whatever form, and we will never allow separatist forces to split Taiwan from China under any name or by any means. History has proven and will continue to prove that any attempt to pursue Taiwan secession separatism will come to no good end and be doomed to fail. The Taiwan secession separatists daring to take reckless moves and cross red line will be met with resolute countermeasures in accordance with the Anti-Secession Law. We urge compatriots in Taiwan to fully recognize the evil nature and serious harm of Taiwan secession, stand on the right side of history, firmly oppose Taiwan secession separatist activities, and work together with the central authorities to safeguard peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait as well as the shared home of the Chinese nation," Chen said.
