Premier Cho Jung-tai, left, and Director General of Personnel Administration Chun-jung, second left, speak to lawmakers at the Legislative Yuan in Taipei yesterday. If Cheng approaches any dialogue supporting the so-called “1992 consensus” and Beijing’s “one China” principle, it would be detrimental to Taiwan’s national interests, he said. Polling consistently shows that Taiwanese do not accept the “1992 consensus,” nor does the international community universally subscribe to Beijing’s “one China” principle, Cho added. Accepting Beijing’s narrative would only divide Taiwanese society, damage national morale and send misleading signals to the global community, Chiu said. “My worry is not about what agreements she might sign, but that she is going there to receive orders from Xi to continue disrupting the government and weakening Taiwan’s national defense,” she said.
