State Council Taiwan Affairs Office: The Philippine side should stop playing with fire on the Taiwan issue.

State Council Taiwan Affairs Office responds to Philippine officials being allowed to visit Taiwan. The State Council Taiwan Affairs Office held a routine press conference today. A reporter asked: According to Philippine media reports, the Philippine government has relaxed restrictions on interaction with Taiwan officials, including allowing Philippine officials to visit Taiwan. What is the spokesperson's comment on this? Spokesperson for the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office, Zhu Fenglian, said, "We firmly oppose any form of official exchanges between the diplomatic relations with China and Taiwan. The Philippines should adhere to the One China principle, stop playing with fire on the Taiwan issue, and stop sending wrong signals to the 'Taiwan independence' separatist forces. No matter how the Democratic Progressive Party authorities cozy up to external forces to provoke 'independence', it will not change the fact that Taiwan is part of China."
