Mainland slams anti-China IPAC for making provocations on Taiwan-related issues

BEIJING -- A Chinese spokesperson on Wednesday condemned the so-called Inter-Parliamentary Alliance on China (IPAC) for making provocations on Taiwan-related issues.

Chen Binhua, spokesperson for the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office, made the remarks at a press conference in response to a media query about the IPAC annual meeting held in Brussels, where Taiwan's Hsiao Bi-khim attended as a speaker.

Chen dismissed the so-called IPAC as merely a clique of anti-China elements, expressing firm opposition to its repeated interference in Taiwan-related issues.

He also slammed the Democratic Progressive Party authorities in Taiwan, noting that their collusion with such organizations to stage a farce will only add to the ridicule and bring disgrace upon themselves.
