Vice President William Lai says that China’s ploys will not win any support in Taiwan

Vice President William Lai says that a video that China released depicting a Taiwanese citizen confessing to espionage will not win over any support from Taiwan. 

The Taiwanese man in the video — Lee Meng-chu — went missing in the Chinese City of Shenzhen in August of last year. China’s Taiwan Affairs Office said in September, 2019, that Chinese authorities had detained Lee under suspicion of undermining national security.

China is claiming that it has exposed Taiwanese spying. But the Vice President says that China detained people with the intention of garnering false confessions to use for their own gain. He says that everyone can see through the charade.

Lai says that Taiwan’s government will do what it can to assist Lee and ensure his human rights are upheld.    [FULL  STORY]
