Beware of China, Taiwan thanks the “friends of India” | India News

NEW DELHI: In another red rag to China, Taiwan President Tsai Ing-Wen on Sunday he thanked “dear friends from India” for their good wishes on National Taiwan Day. While no Indian government body officially desired Taiwan, social media has been inundated in recent days with messages of solidarity with Taiwan, which China considers a separatist province, at a time when India remains locked in a military showdown with the PLA.
“Thank you to all our dear friends from India for your good wishes on National Taiwan Day. Together, we can take pride in safeguarding our shared values ​​such as freedom and human rightsand defend our democratic way of life. Namaste, ” the president tweeted. The leader’s reference, considered harsh for China, implied the lack of these attributes on the continent.

The president’s remarks are the latest in a series of statements by Taiwanese leaders that angered the Chinese embassy here as it believes the island is trying to exploit anti-China sentiment in India. The embassy has repeatedly sent reminders that no person should work to dilute what it said was India’s acceptance of the “one China” policy and also warned Taiwan that it should not engage in any “political manipulation.”

The embassy here warned the ruling of Taiwan Progressive Democratic Party on Saturday that he cannot change the fact that Taiwan is an inalienable part of China, adding that any attempt to engage in political manipulation and separatist activities to create “Taiwan independence” will lead to a dead end and that China remains determined to safeguard sovereignty. and integrity.
