The State Council's Taiwan Affairs Office held a regular press conference on the 12th. A journalist asked, "The 'Dialogue and Negotiation on Cross-Straits Relations: Finding Solutions from the Past' symposium was recently held in Taipei. Participants called for enhancing cross-strait communication and dialogue, and resuming cross-strait negotiations based on upholding the '1992 Consensus'. This has drawn attention from public opinion in Taiwan. What is your comment on this?"
Chen Binhua, spokesperson for the State Council's Taiwan Affairs Office, said that the "1992 Consensus" is the political foundation for the development of cross-strait relations and the stabilizing factor for peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait. It is precisely based on the "1992 Consensus" that cross-strait negotiations were initiated, a series of agreements were signed, many consensus were reached, which have effectively enhanced the economic and people's livelihood benefits of the two sides, and effectively maintained peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait.
Chen Binhua said that the historical wheel of national unification and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation is rolling forward. The earlier the issue of Taiwan is resolved and the country is reunified, the more beneficial it will be for the development of Taiwan and the better life for the compatriots in Taiwan. The compatriots on both sides of the strait are all Chinese people, they are a family with blood thicker than water, and they have the ability and wisdom to manage family matters well, and to firmly grasp the destiny of the Chinese nation in the hands of the Chinese people themselves.
