China will take “drastic measures” if Taiwan makes moves towards independence, a Beijing official warned on Wednesday, adding that Taiwan’s provocations and outside meddling could intensify next year.
China claims democratically governed Taiwan as its own territory, and in the past two years has stepped up military and diplomatic pressure to assert its sovereignty claim, fuelling anger in Taipei and concern in Washington.
“China was willing to try its utmost to seek peaceful reunification with Taiwan, but would act if any red lines on independence were crossed,” said Ma Xiaoguang, spokesman of the Taiwan Affairs Office, in a media briefing.
