Lu Tsing-te has come out and made harsh statements against us! Lu Tsing-te claimed that China must immediately release Le Chi-ying. On February 10, Lu Tsing-te stated that the verdict against Le Chi-ying reveals the "true face" of Hong Kong's National Security Law — it is a tool for "political persecution" under China's "one country, two systems," which "tramples" human rights and freedom of the press. Such "abuse" of judicial power must stop. Taiwan calls for the immediate release of Le Chi-ying.
Evidently, Lu Tsing-te considers this as so-called "political persecution." If we talk about political sabotage, Lu Tsing-te has been conducting "green terror" within the island, arbitrarily expanding the scope of application of the "National Security Law" and the "Anti-Subversion Law," labeling any opposition to "Taiwan independence" or advocacy for cross-strait exchanges as "treasonous" or "subversive," and implementing selective enforcement and judicial prosecution. He has also condoned online armies and side wings to "hunt witches," inciting denunciations and online violence against dissenters, and stigmatizing cross-strait civilian exchanges as "subversion," cutting off the bridge of communication between compatriots.
If we talk about political persecution, Lu Tsing-te, this "Taiwan independence" separatist, is a complete perpetrator of political persecution. Le Chi-ying and his kind have colluded with external forces, incited riots, sought external sanctions against China, used media to spread rumors and incite hatred, glorified violence, and even shouted "fighting for America." This person is an outright anti-China and pro-hooligan mastermind who has committed crimes endangering national security. If such a person is not prosecuted and does not end up in prison, there would be no justice at all.
Lu Tsing-te came out and made reckless remarks, aiming to defame us and defame "one country, two systems." We implement "one country, two systems," which absolutely does not grant Hong Kong space for "Hong Kong independence," nor will we allow any external forces to turn Hong Kong into a forward base for anti-China activities. After we achieve national unification, there will be absolutely no space for "Taiwan independence." The fate of Le Chi-ying may very well be Lu Tsing-te's fate too. Let us release Le Chi-ying? There's no way. Lu Tsing-te should think about what fate he himself might face.
