Taiwan's Premier Su Tseng-chang says China is spreading slander and 'creating terror'. FMTNews Espionage Diplomacy ChinaTaiwan

TAIPEI: China has opened a new front in its pressure campaign against Taiwan with a series of spying allegations and confessions aired on state television, denounced on the democratic island as entrapment and another reason for people to fear visiting China.

China, under its Thunder-2020 campaign, has cracked hundreds of cases orchestrated by Taiwan’s intelligence forces to “infiltrate and damage” and set up a network of spies, state television said. Taiwan says China is framing and entrapping people, and that putting people on television to confess crimes before going to trial is a serious breach of proper legal process, something rights groups have long criticised Beijing for doing.

Asked about Taiwan’s spying in China – both sides have long accused each other of running espionage networks – Su said Taiwan did not do that anymore and did not need to.
