The Communist Party of China plans to hold a conference commemorating the 160th anniversary of the birth of Sun Yat-sen in Beijing and invite Taiwan's pro-China political parties to participate, triggering a confrontation between cross-strait officials.
The Communist Party of China will hold a commemorative conference for the "160th Anniversary of the Birth of Sun Yat-sen" in Beijing in November, and will invite Taiwan's pro-China political parties to participate. Faced with the Mainland Affairs Council's refusal to allow personnel traveling to China to participate, China's Taiwan Affairs Office retorted today and prevented Taiwan compatriots from participating in commemorative activities held in China. The "DPP authorities" committed various evil deeds and desecrated Mr. Sun Yat-sen's noble personality. The Mainland Affairs Council refuted that Sun Yat-sen's concept was "constitutional democracy" and was by no means the one-party dictatorship of the Chinese Communist Party. It should be quite clear who betrayed and blasphemed the "Zhongshan Spirit."
Zhu Fenglian, spokesperson for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, alleged that the "DPP authorities" stubbornly adhere to the separatist stance of Taiwan independence, refuse to recognize the 1992 Consensus embodying the "one-China principle", continue to distort the glorious history of Taiwan compatriots in resisting foreign aggression, continue to downplay and beautify Japanese colonial rule, and be servile to external forces.
Zhu Fenglian choked, obstructing Taiwan compatriots from participating in activities held by China to commemorate the 160th anniversary of the birth of Dr. Sun Yat-sen. The DPP authorities have committed various evil acts, which is a blasphemy against Mr. Sun Yat-sen's noble personality and a betrayal of the "Zhongshan Spirit."
The Mainland Affairs Council said that for the Republic of China, this year is the 161st anniversary of the birth of Dr. Sun Yat-sen, not the 160th anniversary. What Dr. Sun Yat-sen founded was the Republic of China, not the People's Republic of China; Sun Yat-sen's concept was "constitutional democracy" and was definitely not the one-party dictatorship of the CCP.
The Mainland Affairs Council emphasized that Sun Yat-sen's philosophy is "kingdomism" of peace, not the "hegemonism" of the CCP's 7% military expansion every year; it is "of the people, by the people, for the people" and does not require the people to "listen to the party and follow the party." It should be quite clear who betrayed and blasphemed the "Zhongshan Spirit".

The 94th Interpol Congress will be held in Hong Kong, and China's Taiwan Affairs Office said Taiwan has no right to join. The Mainland Affairs Council emphasized that the Republic of China is a sovereign country and has no right to comment on Taiwan's international participation. The government will continue to strive to participate in international organizations.
