\nBEIJING:
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

A Chinese mainland spokesperson on Saturday said that the results of Taiwan election reveal that the Democratic Progressive Party cannot represent the mainstream public opinion on the island.<\/p>\n

While commenting on the outcomes of Taiwan leadership and legislature elections, Chen Binhua, a spokesperson for the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office, noted that Taiwan is China’s Taiwan.<\/p>\n

The elections will not change the basic landscape and development trend of cross-Strait relations, will not alter the shared aspiration of compatriots across the Taiwan Strait to forge closer ties, and will not impede the inevitable trend of China’s reunification, Chen said.<\/p>\n

“Our stance on resolving the Taiwan question and realising national reunification remains consistent, and our determination is as firm as rock,” Chen said.<\/p>\n

“We will adhere to the 1992 Consensus that embodies the one-China principle and firmly oppose the separatist activities aimed at \u2018Taiwan independence\u2019 as well as foreign interference,” Chen said.<\/p>\n

He said the mainland will work with relevant political parties, groups and people from various sectors in Taiwan to boost cross-Strait exchanges and cooperation, enhance cross-Strait integrated development, jointly promote Chinese culture, and advance the peaceful development of cross-Strait relations as well as the cause of national reunification.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
