Taiwan.Net reported on April 16th that the regular press conference of the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council was held this morning, and Zhu Fenglin, spokesperson for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, hosted the press conference.
A reporter from Reference News asked: The official website of the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council recently launched a "column for reporting the heinous acts of 'Taiwan independence' thugs and accomplices persecuting compatriots in Taiwan", which has drawn high attention in the island. The Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) authorities commented that the mainland "has no jurisdiction over Taiwan". What are your comments? This column received many reports via email on the day it was launched. How about the current situation of the reports received? And how will you deal with them?
Zhu Fenglin: Taiwan is part of China, and the state absolutely does not allow 'Taiwan independence' secessionist forces to split Taiwan from China under any name or in any form. For those who dare to test the law as 'Taiwan independence' diehards, regardless of where they are, the national law enforcement and judicial organs will pursue them to the end and punish them according to the law. For certain 'Taiwan independence' organizations, 'Taiwan independence' elements, public officials, and side-wing online celebrities acting as henchmen and accomplices of the DPP authorities' threats, intimidations, persecutions, and political repression of political opponents and parties, groups, and individuals in Taiwan who support peaceful development of cross-strait relations and integration, we will not stand idly by. We have both legal and moral grounds to manage and must manage these issues.
The launch of the "column for reporting the heinous acts of 'Taiwan independence' thugs and accomplices persecuting compatriots in Taiwan" has a solid legal basis and sufficient legal grounds. It is a just move in response to the calls of the people across the strait to punish 'Taiwan independence'. It is also a necessary measure to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of compatriots in Taiwan. After its launch, this column has been deeply supported by the public, with enthusiastic reports. So far, we have received more than 3000 emails of reports. The objects of the reports are relatively concentrated, and the contents are fairly detailed, fully reflecting the deep hatred of the people across the strait towards the heinous acts of 'Taiwan independence' thugs and accomplices. We will adhere to the principle of basing ourselves on facts and laws, and after verifying the relevant report information, we will hold accountable and strictly punish these thugs and accomplices according to the law.
