A Chinese mainland spokesperson on Tuesday strongly condemned Taiwan's Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) for creating "green terror" on the island, undermining the exchanges and harming the feelings of the people across the Taiwan Strait.
In Taiwan, the pro-independence DPP and its supporters are described as the "green" camp, while the Chinese Kuomintang party and its supporters are called the "blue" camp.
Zhu Fenglian, spokesperson for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, made the remarks at a press conference on Wednesday, in response to the passage of the "anti-infiltration bill" approved by the island's legislative body.
Zhu noted that the DPP will have to take the consequences as it went against popular sentiments, incited confrontation and created hostility across the Taiwan Strait.
"We believe that Taiwan compatriots are able to distinguish right from wrong, will work together to eliminate interference, and create a bright future for cross-Strait relations with the mainland," added Zhu.
