Chinese Authorities Impede Mainland Automotive Sales in Taiwan, NPC: Using "Security" as a Pretext to Suppress Cross-Strait Economic Cooperation and Exchanges

  Glorion's Summary August 13th | The Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council held its regular press conference. A reporter asked about Chinese authorities impeding mainland automotive sales in Taiwan. In response, spokesperson Zhu Fenglian said that including new energy cars among other mainland products with innovative technology and outstanding performance have won the admiration of global consumers. Strengthening cooperation in related fields between the two sides has been a boon to Taiwanese people and the industry alike. The Chinese authorities' move is driven by their own selfish interests, disregarding the Taiwanese people's anticipation for high-quality products and the industry's call for enhanced cross-strait industrial cooperation, using the so-called "security" as a pretext to block Taiwan's residents from purchasing and using high-quality mainland products, and strive to suppress cross-strait economic cooperation and exchanges. Such actions are detrimental to the rights of both sides' enterprises and consumers, damaging Taiwan's market and business environment.
