DPP actions lack public support

Official condemns island authorities for blocking cross-Strait exchanges
Taiwan's ruling Democratic Progressive Party is obstructing cross-Strait exchanges despite public support for peace and cooperation, a mainland official said on Wednesday.
Chen Binhua, spokesperson for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, accused the DPP of restricting academic exchanges by banning cooperation with Jinan University and two other mainland institutions. Recently, Taiwan expanded the blacklist to include seven more universities, including Beihang University and the Beijing Institute of Technology.
"The DPP authorities are the main obstacle to cross-Strait cooperation and a destroyer of peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait," Chen said.
