China News Service, February 28: Zhu Fenglian, spokesperson of the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, pointed out at a regular press conference on the 28th that the reasons for the suspension of the cross-strait institutionalized consultation mechanism are well known.

Only by returning to the political basis of the "1992 Consensus" can cross-strait consultations and negotiations be resumed.

　　At the meeting, a reporter asked the first question: After the Xiajin fishing boat incident, cross-strait antagonism has sharply increased, and people from all walks of life are worried that guns may go off at any time.

This means that cross-strait fishery operations agreements and interactive planning are indeed necessary to sit down and discuss.

But as we all know, there is currently no room for dialogue between the officials on both sides of the Taiwan Strait.

May I ask the spokesperson, how should the two sides of the Taiwan Strait cooperate, use institutional arrangements to prevent such conflicts, and protect the rights and interests of fishermen on both sides of the Strait?

Second question: After the Xiajin fishing boat incident, mainland Red Cross representatives have intensively negotiated with the Coast Guard in recent days. Is this a rare face-to-face intensive negotiation between the two sides in the eight years since Tsai Ing-wen took office?

Will this be the new model of cross-strait interaction after Lai Ching-te came to power on May 20?

　　In response to this, Zhu Fenglian pointed out that the first question is that cross-strait dialogue and consultation is our consistent position.

The reasons for the suspension of the cross-strait dialogue and communication mechanism are well known, and the solution is clear.

As long as the DPP authorities recognize the "1992 Consensus" that embodies the one-China principle, the door to cross-strait consultations and negotiations can be opened at any time.

　　The second question is that relevant personnel of the Quanzhou Red Cross Society were entrusted by the family members to communicate with relevant parties in Taiwan on the aftermath of the vicious ship collision on "2.14" and had nothing to do with cross-strait negotiations.

The reasons for the suspension of the cross-strait institutionalized consultation mechanism are well known.

Only by returning to the political basis of the "1992 Consensus" can cross-strait consultations and negotiations be resumed.
