Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Mao Ning

When asked to comment on remarks of Raymond Greene, head of the "American Institute in Taiwan" Taipei office, who welcomed Taiwan's announcement of a $40 billion "defense spending plan," and to comment on Taiwan region's "defense spending plan," Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said that the Chinese side's opposition against official, and even military, contacts between the US and Taiwan region is consistent. Any attempt by the DPP authorities to resist reunification or pursue "independence" by force is doomed to fail, Mao said.
