The Chinese government on Wednesday accused Taiwan라이브 바카라 ruling party of seeking independence, a day after the self-governing island라이브 바카라 president lobbied for Australia라이브 바카라 support in joining a regional trade pact.
Zhu Fenglian, spokesperson for China라이브 바카라 Taiwan Affairs Office, also said the recent Chinese military drills around Taiwan were held to combat “the arrogance of Taiwan independence separatist forces.”
China claims Taiwan, an island about 160 kilometres (100 miles) off its east coast, as its territory. The two split during the civil war that brought the Communists to power in China in 1949, with the losing Nationalists setting up their own government in Taiwan.
Taiwan President Tsai Ing-wen, meeting with six visiting Australian lawmakers on Tuesday, sought their country라이브 바카라 support for Taiwan라이브 바카라 bid to join the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership, an 11-nation free trade agreement.
The Australian parliamentary delegation discussed strengthening economic cooperation with Taiwan, particularly in clean energy, and expressed an interest in Taiwan라이브 바카라 semiconductor industry.
Zhu said that any participation by Taiwan in a regional economic grouping should be handled in accordance with the “one-China principle,” which holds that the Communist Party is the government of China and Taiwan is a part of the country.
"The Democratic Progressive Party라이브 바카라 attempt to seek independence in the name of economy and trade will not succeed,” she said, referring to Tsai라이브 바카라 political party.
Zhu signalled that China would not ease up on its military activity around Taiwan.
“As long as Taiwan independence라이브 바카라 provocations continue, the People라이브 바카라 Liberation Army라이브 바카라 actions to safeguard national sovereignty and territorial integrity will not stop,” she said.바카라 웹사이트
