State Council Taiwan Affairs Office: Compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait should carry forward the spirit of Mr. Sun Yat-sen and jointly promote the peaceful development of cross-strait relations.

The Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council held a routine press conference. A reporter asked a question about the 160th anniversary of the birth of Mr. Sun Yat-sen. Spokesperson Chen Binhua said that both sides of the Taiwan Strait are Chinese and are one family. The Chinese people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait have the wisdom and ability to solve their own problems. Mr. Sun Yat-sen is a great national hero, a great patriot, and a great pioneer of China's democratic revolution. Compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait should learn, inherit, and carry forward his valuable spirit, resolutely oppose "Taiwan independence", division, and foreign interference, and jointly promote the peaceful development of cross-strait relations.
