State Council Taiwan Affairs Office: The DPP authorities attempt to collude with external forces to seek independence and provoke, and are doomed to fail.

On the 24th, the State Council's Taiwan Affairs Office held a routine press conference. A reporter asked about the recent incident of the acting secretary-general of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party of Japan visiting Taiwan. Spokesperson Peng Qing'en stated, "We firmly oppose the visit by Japanese officials. We demand that Japan learn from history, abide by the One-China principle and the spirit of the four political documents between China and Japan with practical actions, and cease all erroneous words and actions related to Taiwan. The Democratic Progressive Party authorities seek to collude with external forces to provoke 'independence', but they are destined to fail."
