Mainland warns Taiwan's military plan a threat to cross-Strait stability

Lai Ching-te and the Democratic Progressive Party authorities in Taiwan are intensifying preparations for war and "independence", posing the greatest threat to peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait, a Chinese mainland spokeswoman said on Wednesday.

Zhu Fenglian, the spokeswoman for the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office, said at a news conference in Beijing that if the DPP authorities were allowed to continue such acts, it would only lead to increased risks of conflict and danger for Taiwan.

In a recent announcement in New Taipei City, island leader Lai outlined plans to complete the construction of 11 large ships of over 1,000 metric tons within the next seven years, claiming the leadership aims to provide better equipment for facing various threats and to instill confidence in safeguarding Taiwan's "territory and maritime borders".
