China News Service, February 24, Taiwan Affairs Office spokesperson Ma Xiaoguang pointed out on the 24th that cross-strait relations have once been blooming.
The warmth of spring needs east wind, and the blooming of flowers needs rain and dew.
Dongfeng and Yulu are the "92 Consensus."
The Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council held a regular press conference on the 24th.
A reporter asked that Qiu Taisan became the chairperson of the Mainland Affairs Council on the 23rd. He said that cross-strait exchanges must be restored and he hopes that the two sides of the strait will "bloom in spring" in the future.
Some people in the green camp expressed the hope that Qiu Taisan could open up the opportunity for cross-strait dialogue after taking office.
What is the spokesperson’s response to this?
Ma Xiaoguang said that cross-strait relations once had spring flowers.
"The warmth of spring requires east wind, and the blooming of flowers requires rain and dew. East wind and rain are the '92 Consensus.' If gentlemen in Taiwan have such expectations and are willing to obey the wishes of compatriots on both sides of the strait, then return to sticking to the '92 Consensus.' On a common political basis."
Some reporters continued to ask questions. Qiu Taisan said that he hoped that the two sides of the strait would have spring blossoms in the future.
He also said that after the mainland made a new raise to the "92 Consensus," the Taiwanese people have no way to accept it.
What is the spokesperson’s view on this?
Ma Xiaoguang said that with regard to the blooming of spring flowers, it is not enough to just talk about the blooming of spring flowers. It is necessary to think about why there have been spring flowers.
Why did the past spring blossoms be devastated by the DPP authorities and turned into a bleak autumn wind?
"Regarding the issue of the '92 Consensus', I would like to spread the basic common sense here." Ma Xiaoguang pointed out that in 1992, the ARATS and the Taiwan Straits Foundation through the Hong Kong talks and subsequent correspondence and telegrams, reached an oral statement. The consensus that "both sides of the strait adhere to the one-China principle".
The Straits Foundation’s statement is: “In the process of the two sides of the strait working together to seek national reunification, although both sides adhere to the one-China principle, they have different perceptions of the meaning of one China.” The ARATS statement is: " Both sides of the Taiwan Strait adhere to the one-China principle and strive to seek national reunification. However, the political connotation of one China is not involved in cross-strait transactional discussions." In the consensus, both sides have expressed their attitudes to adhere to the one-China principle and pursue national reunification. The essence is that "both sides of the strait belong to one China and work together to seek national reunification."
Ma Xiaoguang said that we have said many times that whether to accept the "1992 Consensus" is related to the fundamental nature of cross-strait relations and is a touchstone for testing the so-called "goodwill" of the Taiwan authorities.
As long as the historical facts of the "92 Consensus" are recognized and their core meanings are recognized, there will be no obstacles to contacts and exchanges between the two sides.
Another reporter asked a question that the MAC Chairman Qiu Taisan proposed that the mainland has made new comments on the "92 Consensus."
It is understood that Qiu Taisan is referring to the "one country, two systems" Taiwan plan.
Compared with the mainland’s one-China principle, Taiwan’s extension of power has become smaller.
In this regard, what comment does the spokesperson have on this.
"The gentleman you mentioned deliberately confuses the '92 Consensus' with'One Country, Two Systems'. He does not know it, but deliberately twisted, deliberately confuses, and deliberately grafted. Everyone knows that'One Country, Two Systems' is the mainland's proposal to resolve Taiwan. Scientific conception of the issue. The '92 Consensus' is the prerequisite foundation for the peaceful development of cross-strait relations. The DPP authorities are trying to deny the '92 Consensus' and the common political basis of cross-strait relations by shifting the two into one another. "Ma Xiaoguang said.
Some reporters also asked questions that Qiu Taisan said in an interview that in the future, he would work hard to restart the dialogue between the long-frozen cross-strait relations.
Is it true that Qiu Taisan's wish will not be realized if he does not return to the "92 Consensus" basis?
"Since the so-called'wish' has been put forward, we should know the path and conditions for fulfilling the wish. The reasons for the current complex, severe, and tense confrontational situation of cross-strait relations are well known. You must tie the bells to untie the bells, and look forward to the spring. The pragmatic attitude and practical actions of planting spring come." Ma Xiaoguang said.
