China Threatens Death Penalty for Taiwan Independence ‘Diehards’

China has issued a warning to Taiwan independence separatists, stating that in extreme cases, the death penalty may be imposed on those considered to be "diehard" supporters of Taiwan independence. This move represents an escalation of pressure, despite the fact that Chinese courts do not have jurisdiction over Taiwan, which is governed democratically. China considers Taiwan to be a part of its territory and has expressed strong disapproval of President Lai Ching-te, who assumed office recently. Lai has been labeled a "separatist" by China, and shortly after his inauguration, China conducted military exercises as a show of force. The Taiwanese government has responded by asserting that China has no authority over Taiwan and has urged its people not to be intimidated by such threats. The tensions between China and Taiwan continue to simmer, with Beijing taking a hardline stance against any moves towards independence by Taiwan.
