A Chinese mainland spokesperson on Friday denounced Taiwan's Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) authority as it attempts to harbor rioters from the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR).

A so-called "assistance" plan recently announced by the DPP authority once again laid bare its political agenda to meddle in Hong Kong affairs and to sabotage prosperity and stability in the HKSAR, said Zhu Fenglian, spokesperson for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council.

Harboring the Hong Kong rioters will only bring problems to Taiwan people, said Zhu.

The plot of forces advocating "Taiwan independence" and "Hong Kong independence" to sabotage the "One Country, Two Systems" principle and to split the nation will never succeed, she said.
