BEIJING, Nov.11 (Xinhuanet) -- The Taiwan-related part of a
report delivered by Jiang Zemin at the 16th National
Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC) is of great
significance for guiding future work relating to Taiwan,
Chen Yunlin, director of the Taiwan Affairs Office of the
State Council, said here Monday.
"This part reviews all
major profound changes in, and outstanding features, of the
situation in Taiwan and cross-Straitsties, puts forth
guidelines for Taiwan-related work, underlines the focal
points of the work and displays a firm resolution to
complete the great cause of national reunification,"
said Chen, a delegate to the ongoing Party Congress, in an
exclusive interview with Xinhua.
The guidelines for
Taiwan-related work outlined in Jiang's report mainly
consist of three points, and the first is to adhere to the
basic principle of "one country, two systems",
fully implement Jiang's eight-point proposal, firmly stick
to the "One China" principle and oppose
"Taiwan independence" and any other splittist
attempts, and seek an early resumption of dialogue and talks
across the Straits on the basis of the "One China"
principle,said Chen.
The
second is to implement the principle of "placing hopes
on the Taiwan people", expand economic, cultural and
personnel exchanges across the Straits, and strive for the
realization of the "three direct links" of mail,
air and shipping services and trade across the Straits, he
added.
The third and last
point is to make maximal efforts with the greatest sincerity
for the prospect of a peaceful reunification, but meanwhile
never undertake to renounce the use of force and do not
allow the Taiwan question to drag on indefinitely, said
Chen.
"All these are
major decisions made by the Party Central Committee in
accordance with our country's development strategy and after
comprehensively studying the overall situation for the
Taiwan question," he said.
Chen said that under the
guidance of the Party Congress report,his office would work
harder and with greater confidence for the early settlement
of the Taiwan question and realize the complete
reunification of the motherland. Enditem
