China will firmly oppose any actions aimed at promoting Taiwan’s independence and interference by external forces in the country’s internal affairs, spokesman for China’s Taiwan Affairs Office Chen Binhua said on Saturday, commenting on the results of the island’s elections.
Earlier in the day, the Taiwanese Central Election Commission named Lai Ching-te, the candidate from Taiwan’s ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), the winner of the regional leader’s election as he secured 40.
