July 9 — China’s Defence Ministry spokesperson Senior Colonel Chen Xi condemned Taiwan politician Lai Ching‑te after Lai said Taiwan would continue to increase foreign arms purchases and pursue defence autonomy and following Taiwan navy moves to establish a coastal operations command. Chen accused Lai of advocating use of force and relying on foreign support, calling him a ‘‘peace spoiler’’ and ‘‘war instigator,’’ and said Lai’s words and actions would not change the cross‑strait military balance or prevent, in Chen’s words, the country’s inevitable reunification. Chen urged Taiwan residents to reject independence and external interference and to help maintain cross‑strait peace and stability.
