The Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) authorities' concessions to the U.S. have only led to more aggressive plundering, said Chen Binhua, a spokesman for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, on Wednesday.
Chen was responding to a media question regarding the U.S. decision to launch a Section 301 investigation into its trade partners, including China's Taiwan region.
"The DPP authorities, in their blind obedience and total deference to the U.S., fawn on the U.S. without principle and sell Taiwan away without any bottom line. They try to cozy up to the U.S. at the expense of the well-being of residents in Taiwan and the region's economic prospects. However, such unrelenting compromise and concessions have yielded no mercy, but only invited more aggressive plundering by the U.S.. The DPP authorities are doomed to be completely exploited and discarded, which is ridiculous, detestable, and deeply pathetic," said Chen.

Taiwan compatriots are family and the motherland will spare no efforts to ensure their safety, Chinese Defense Ministry spokesman Jiang Bin said at a press briefing on Wednesday, while condemning the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) authorities for their despicable political smears and manipulation.
Jiang was responding to media queries about recent hostile comments from the DPP authorities distorting the mainland's emergency evacuation support for Taiwan compatriots stranded in overseas conflict zones.
"War knows no mercy, yet the motherland offers boundless love. Taiwan compatriots are our family bound by blood. At every moment of crisis and in every emergency evacuation operation, we have gone all out to keep our compatriots safe and bring them home. This is the profound care the motherland extends to every Chinese citizen, and a consistent practice of our abiding principle of putting the people and their lives first," Jiang said.
"Instead of showing any regard for the safety of Taiwan residents and taking action to help stranded Taiwan compatriots escape the ravages of war, the DPP authorities have obstructed them from accepting mainland evacuation assistance. The DPP authorities have even seized the opportunity to seek selfish political gains and relentlessly pursued Taiwan secession through military buildup. Such actions, which show a complete lack of conscience and humanity, are despicable and will surely be condemned by all," he added.
