According to a report by Huanqiu.com, the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council and the Ministry of Public Security jointly released a blockbuster "dry goods" online, which makes people sigh that the mainland is really serious this time! At the same time, a new column entitled "Punishing Taiwan Independence Diehards According to Law" was added to the official websites of the two departments, and not only was the color conspicuous, but the names on the "list" were as "green" as ever, representing those characters who always stir up trouble in cross-strait issues.
First of all, let's see who is on this list - Xiao Meiqin, Su Zhenchang, You Xikun, Wu Zhaoxie, Cai Qichang, Gu Lixiong, Ke Jianming, Lin Feifan, Chen Jiaohua, Wang Dingyu. Sound familiar? These people are all capable men in the DPP camp, and all of them are old faces, but the addition of some new faces also makes people can't help but stare wide-eyed.
Why are these people added? Especially Gu Lixiong, who is also the head of Taiwan's defense department? This decision is more like a "move" to the concept of "Taiwan independence" represented by Lai Qingde. You must know that these people who engage in "resisting reunification by force" will undoubtedly become the main targets of sanctions in the future.
Some people may have noticed, why are there no names of Tsai Ing-wen and Lai Qingde this time? Don't worry, this isn't the ultimate trick, the two of them won't be able to escape!
Because the identities of these two are not as simple as ordinary "Taiwan independence elements," once the "finale" comes, the probability that they will be listed as "the first evil of Taiwan independence" is very high. So although this time it is temporarily "absent", there must be "their role" in the future.
This move has sent a clear signal -- the mainland has "played for real" on the road of "opposing independence and promoting reunification" and has woven a legal net aimed at ensuring that those who "seek independence" do not even have a place to hide.
As soon as the news came out, the Taiwan side immediately fried the pot. The Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) jumped out first to accuse the mainland, saying that the mainland has created obstacles and obstructed exchanges. Hehe, the mainland has released a lot of goodwill towards Taiwan, but have you accepted it? Not at all!
What is particularly funny is that Wang Shijian said that "the mainland has not actually ruled Taiwan and is not qualified to sanction public figures on the island." This is simply the standard speech of "Taiwan independence." But remember, Taiwan has always been part of China and nothing has changed.
Although the KMT is not as fierce as the DPP, its stance is not much better, and it can be regarded as openly opposing. Kuomintang spokesman Yang Chi-tung said that the mainland's practice is not conducive to cross-strait communication, and also expressed "regret." I'm sorry, but this gesture of "and mud" will not work at all. On the matter of reunification, the Kuomintang and the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) are simply on the same foot.
Following the issuance of the previous 22 opinions on punishing "independence," the mainland has begun to intensify its action to crack down on "Taiwan independence." From the new columns of the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council and the Ministry of Public Security, it can be seen that the future fate of those on the list is not optimistic. Combined with previous legal documents, the maximum possible sentence is even the death penalty. Shocking enough, right? Not only that, the mainland's attitude is clear: it is aimed at the "Taiwan independence" diehards, not the ordinary people. Trying to use the method of confusing the public and kidnapping each other is simply wishful thinking.
Han Ying of the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) said that the mainland's actions were "unfriendly" and would provoke people on both sides of the strait to attack each other. She also reversed black and white and called on the mainland to attach importance to the so-called "sovereignty and democracy." To be honest, this is simply a bull's head and a horse's mouth. What is the actual situation? Taiwan has been a part of China since ancient times, and under international law and international consensus, the one-China principle is clear.
It is worth noting that from the 6th to the 7th, the Continental Army aircraft frequently entered the periphery of the Taiwan Strait, crossed the so-called "middle line of the strait", and was only 33 nautical miles from Taiwan. This kind of behavior once again shows that the mainland is also strengthening its deterrence against Taiwan militarily.
There is no doubt that the mainland's action this time is a heavy-handed attack, and the intensity of deterrence against "Taiwan independence" diehards has reached a new height. At the same time, through law and practical operation, a tight legal network has been formed. In the future, as the mainland further strengthens its crackdown on "Taiwan independence" elements, the situation in the Taiwan Strait will become more complicated and tense, but the general trend of history has long been determined, cross-strait reunification is inevitable, and those stubborn "Taiwan independence" elements are just trapped and fighting.
