Taiwan regional elections results cannot change the fact that Taiwan is an inalienable part of China's territory, Ma Xiaoguang, spokesperson for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, said at a press conference on Wednesday. Ma said compatriots on both sides have a strong wish for the peaceful development of cross-Strait relations. Chinese mainland's policy toward Taiwan is clear and consistent, Ma said, adding that the principles of "peaceful reunification" and "One Country, Two Systems" have proved to be the best path for national reunification. Ma said the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) has refused to recognize the 1992 Consensus since Tsai Ing-Wen took office in May 2016. The DPP has undermined the common political foundation of the peaceful development of cross-Strait relations and it has worsened communication, Ma said. "A mountain could be moved but the 1992 Consensus is unshakable," Ma noted, adding that the future of Taiwan is decided by all Chinese people. |
