The Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council held a regular press conference. A reporter asked that today, Taipei City is holding a “Red Panda Meeting Ceremony with Taipei Citizens”. Shanghai originally planned to send a delegation to Taiwan to participate, but the DPP authorities refused entry applications such as the head of the delegation and others, so they were unable to do so. Any comments on this please? Spokesman Chen Binhua said in response to questions that the Shanghai Taipei City Forum, as an important institutional exchange platform between Shanghai and Taipei, has played a positive role in promoting exchanges and cooperation between the two cities in various fields, and the results are obvious to all. The red panda went to Taiwan and was widely welcomed by Taiwanese compatriots. The DPP authorities actually unreasonably harassed and unreasonably refused to send personnel to attend the meeting ceremony, fully revealing their “Taiwan independence” nature and confrontational mentality. We condemn this. The Democratic Progressive Party authorities frequently obstruct practices that restrict normal cross-strait exchanges and cooperation and disrupt cross-strait relations. They completely violate mainstream public opinion on the island, and are bound to be opposed and rejected by the Taiwanese people.
