CCTV News: On the morning of March 26, 2025, the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council held a regular press conference, and the spokesperson answered reporters' questions on recent hot cross-strait issues.

Chen Binhua, spokesperson of the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, introduced that since 1949, we have united our compatriots in Taiwan to promote the situation in the Taiwan Strait from tense confrontation to easing and improving, and then embarking on the path of peaceful development, and cross-strait relations have made continuous breakthroughs. The results are hard to come by and are extremely precious. Lai Qingte made a frank statement, defining the mainland as "hostile forces abroad", equating cross-strait relations with "hostile relations". This is to reverse history, provoke the mainland rampantly, and intensify tensions in the Taiwan Strait, fully confirming that he is a "spuncturer of cross-strait peace" and a "maker of crisis in the Taiwan Strait."

The "17 strategies" put forward by Lai Ching-te violated public opinion completely exposes the ugly face of anti-peace, anti-exchange, anti-democracy and anti-humanity. What he said and done is to incite "anti-China and resist China" and obstruct cross-strait exchanges and cooperation, and to engage in "terrorist politics and green dictatorship" on the island.

Unification is the general trend of history and the right way. "Taiwan independence" is a historical countercurrent and a dead end. We will never tolerate and will never tolerate any acts that damage the rights and interests of Taiwan compatriots, undermine the development of cross-strait relations, and endanger peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait. We must resolutely counter and severely punish. I believe that the majority of Taiwanese compatriots can recognize the serious harm of Lai Ching-te and the DPP authorities in harming Taiwan’s people, and start from safeguarding their own rights and interests and peace in the Taiwan Strait, and fight against Lai Ching-te authorities’ counter-intentional actions and prevent their conspiracy from succeeding.
