The Taiwan Strait's tranquility is once more threatened, as China's Taiwan Affairs Office has accused Lai Ching-te of stirring tensions through "constant provocations." The office asserted that Lai's actions have severely disrupted peace and stability in the region.
In a strongly worded statement released on Thursday, officials emphasized that regardless of Lai's statements, they do not alter the Taiwan Strait reality or Taiwan's legal status as part of China. They reiterated that both sides of the strait remain a single China.
This ongoing discourse underscores the delicate nature of cross-strait relations and highlights the persisting disagreements over Taiwan's diplomatic and political standing.
