In response to an inquiry on that the so-called "mainland affairs council" in the Taiwan island asked the mainland to explain and apologize for Chinese embassy staff in the Czech Republic "attacking" Hsiao Bi-khim during her visit to Czech Republic, Chen Binhua, a spokesperson for the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office, said on Wednesday that we have always clearly opposed any form of official exchanges between countries having diplomatic ties with China and the Taiwan region, and firmly opposed relevant country providing a political stage for "Taiwan independence" separatists.

Relevant countries should abide by the one-China principle and not be provoked and exploited by "Taiwan independence" separatist forces, said Chen, noting that Chinese diplomats have always abided by the laws and regulations of the host countries. 

The so-called "attack" incident hyped up by the relevant countries and the DPP authorities is made up and reverses right and wrong. The DPP authorities have once again maliciously hyped up the topic in order to incite hostile confrontation between the two sides of the Taiwan Straits, said Chen.

Chen also warned the DPP authorities that no matter how many times they repeat their lies, they will not come true, and the continuous farce will only bring shame upon themselves.
