Deepening military cooperation between Taiwan and US can be dangerous, Chinese experts say

Beijing. May 11. Silkroadnews - Analysts warn, deepening military cooperation between Taiwan and the United States is a dangerous step that could lead to serious consequences, Global Times wrote.
“The deepening US defense cooperation with Taiwan is an act of gross interference in China's domestic affairs. It's a very serious matter for the Chinese mainland,” the agency quoted saying by Zhu Songlin, a professor at the Taiwan Institute in Beijing.
“Further moves that promote concrete military exchanges will invoke a strong response from the mainland, even prompt the Chinese mainland to use non-peaceful means to resolve the Taiwan question,” he said.
Taiwan’s head Tsai Ing-wen called for talks between Taiwan and the mainland “without any political preconditions on the basis of respect and equality” when asked to comment on the historic meeting between North Korean leader Kim Jong-un and South Korean President Moon Jae-in.
Analysts of mainland China said that such a meeting would be impossible, as Tsai refuses to acknowledge the consensus of 1992, which emphasizes the policy of one-China.
“Tsai knew very well her proposal is nothing but empty words to alleviate pressure from public opinion,” Zhu said, “Any official cross-Straits interactions must be based on the 1992 Consensus and the acknowledgement that both sides are of one nation and one people.”
