On July 22, the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council held a regular press conference.A reporter asked: Regarding the recent deliberate provocation of the Philippines on Ren'ai Reef, violent attacks on Chinese law enforcement personnel, and subsequent distortion and hype.Taiwan's foreign affairs department actually echoed that it "condemns the mainland's use of force to injure people" and opposes any unilateral attempts and actions to change the status quo through force, coercion, and gray zone harassment.Do you have any comment on this?
Spokesperson Zhang Han said that Ren'ai Reef is part of China's Nansha Islands and is Chinese territory.The DPP authorities have lost their national stance, gone along with external forces to confuse right and wrong, and attacked and smeared the mainland. This has once again exposed its evil nature of forgetting its ancestors and "relying on foreign countries to seek independence."
