BEIJING, April 13
(Xinhuanet) -- A Chinese mainland official said here Wednesday that the
mainland is willing to negotiate with any Taiwanese political Parties, as
long as they uphold the one-China principle and the "1992 Consensus".
Li Weiyi, spokesman of the
Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, or China's cabinet, said at a
regular press conference that currently the negotiation between the
mainland-based Association for Relations Across the Taiwan Straits (ARATS)
and the Straits Exchange Foundation (SEF), or the counterpart of ARATSin
Taiwan, failed to resume, because the Taiwan authorities did not
acknowledge the one-China principle and the "1992 Consensus".
Under such circumstances,
the mainland is willing to negotiate and exchange views on the "three
direct links" as well as other issues concerned by the people across the
Straits, with any Taiwanese parties and organizations which acknowledged
the "1992 Consensus" and refused the position of "Taiwan independence", Li
said.
Li said the mainland also
welcomed the visit by the person in charge of the Democratic Progressive
Party, as long as the party gave up the stand of "Taiwan independence"
position and stopped the "Taiwan independence" separation
activities. |
