Taiwan authority's move to restrict cross-Strait visits, exchanges will cost public support: spokesperson
BEIJING -- Taiwan's current Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) administration will lose public support by creating barriers for cross-Straits visits and exchanges, a spokesperson said Thursday.
The comment came in response to an enquiry regarding the island authority's introduction of newly revised regulations which further restricts and cut cross-Straits visits and exchanges.
"Behind the revision are the DPP administration's selfish interests and secret political agenda, which will further hurt the interests of the people across the Taiwan Strait, especially compatriots in Taiwan," said An Fengshan, spokesperson for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council.
"The mainland will further expand and deepen economic and cultural exchange and cooperation across the Strait, and facilitate people-to-people exchanges," said the spokesperson.
