BEIJING - A Chinese mainland spokesperson on Thursday slammed the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) authority in Taiwan for its irresponsible finger-pointing at the sentences of Joshua Wong Chi-fung and two other secessionists.

The Democratic Progressive Party authority's meddling in Hong Kong affairs once again exposed its motive to create chaos in Hong Kong and seek "Taiwan independence," said Zhu Fenglian, spokesperson for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council

Zhu Fenglian, the spokesperson for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, voiced firm support for the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region government in safeguarding the rule of law in the region. She made the remarks when responding to a query about the DPP authority's comments on Wednesday's sentencing of Wong his two associates at a press conference held in Beijing Thursday.

The DPP authority's meddling in Hong Kong affairs once again exposed its motive to create chaos in Hong Kong and seek "Taiwan independence," said Zhu, noting that the move laid bare the DPP's hypocrisy in the name of so-called "democracy."

"We once again warn the DPP authority to cease meddling in Hong Kong affairs immediately," Zhu said.
