The ministry added in a statement on its official website that the ruling Democratic Progressive Party in Taiwan has not taken any practical measures to lift “trade restrictions” on mainland China.
She continued, saying: “The relevant departments are currently considering taking additional measures based on the findings of the investigation into trade impediments by Taiwan.”
China criticizes the president Taiwan It describes it as “separatist” as Beijing considers democratically ruled Taiwan part of its territory. Taiwanese President Lai and his government reject Beijing’s claims to sovereignty over his country, saying that only the people of Taiwan can decide their fate.
Today’s announcement from the Chinese Ministry of Commerce may be a sign of tariffs or other forms of economic pressure on the island in the near future.
Office rose China The Taiwan Affairs Committee responded to the announcement by saying that the main reason behind the trade dispute was the Democratic Progressive Party authorities’ “stubborn adherence to the ‘Taiwan independence’ position.”
The Framework Agreement for Cross-Strait Economic Cooperation was signed between China and Taiwan in 2010, and Taiwan officials previously told Reuters that China was likely to pressure Lai by ending some preferential trade-related conditions in the agreement.
