BEIJING, July 15 (Xinhua) -- Attempts to define the status quo across the Taiwan Strait under a new "two states" theory run counter to legal principles, history and reality, constituting a fallacious separatist narrative advocating "Taiwan independence," a Chinese mainland spokesperson said Wednesday. Zhu Fenglian, spokesperson for the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office, made the remarks when asked about comments by politicians from Taiwan's Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), who accused the mainland of changing the status quo through military and non-military actions. "Such claims are a complete distortion of facts and pure malicious hype," Zhu said. "There is only one China in the world, and Taiwan is part of China -- and that is the true status quo of the Taiwan Strait." She pointed out that the DPP authorities have stubbornly adhered to their "Taiwan independence" stance, refused to recognize the 1992 Consensus that embodies the one-China principle, and continually colluded with external forces in provocative acts aimed at seeking "Taiwan independence," making themselves the disruptor of the cross-Strait status quo and the biggest source of instability across the Strait.
