Beijing (Reuters) -China on Monday Accused Taiwanese President Lai Ching -Te of “Heresy,” hostility and provocation, after Speech in Which he Said the Island is “of Course” a country and there is historical evidence and legal proof to back this up.
Beijing says democratically government taiwan is “sacred” Chinese Territory That has Belted to China Since Ancient Times, and that the island is one of its provinces with no good to be called a state.
Lai and His Government Strongly Reject That View, and Have Offered Talks With China Multiple Times But Been Rejected. China Calls Lai a separatist.
China’s Taiwan affairs office, response to lai’s sunday evening speech, said he have intensionally outorted history to promote His tawan independence agenda and that the island hasland ben to country.
“It was a ‘Taiwan Independence’ Declaration That Blatantly Incited Cross-Strait Confrontation, and a Hodgepodge of ‘Taiwan Independence’ Fallacies and Heresies Full of Errull of Errors and omissions,” It Said in A Statement.
“The Fallacies Manufactured by Lai Ching-Te in Contravention of History, reality and jurisprudence will only be swept into the rubbish heap of history.
Responing, Taiwan’s China-Policy Making Making Affairs Council Said Lai was simply Stating Historical Facts and Beijing’s Belief the Island has Been Chinese Since Ancient Times and Is Not A Country is “Just to Fabricate Lie Without Any Basis”.
“We Call on the Chinese Communist Authorories To Face Up To the Fact That the Republic of China Objectivery Exists and the Status Qo in the Taiwan Strait That ‘The Two Sids Not Subordinate To Each Other’,” It added in a statement.
In 1949, The Republic of China Government Fled to Taiwan AFTER LOSING A CIVIL WAR WITH MAO ZEDONG’S COMMUNISTS, AND THAT REMAINS THE ISLAND’S FORMAL NAME.
Lai has repeatedly said that only taiwan’s people can decide Their Future, and That, The People’s Republic of China hasland the island, it has no Right to Claim it or speak on its behavior.
Taiwan Has Over the Past Five Years Faced Stepped-Up Military and Political Pressure From China, Including War Games.
