Chinese State Broadcaster says Chinese military drills are punishment for Taiwan

Chinese State Broadcaster:

• Lai Ching-Te’s May 20 speech was ‘complete confession’ of Taiwan
  independence
• Lai Ching-Te’s May
  20 speech seriously ‘provoked’ one-China principle, undermined peace
  and stability across Taiwan strait
• Lai Ching-Te’s may
  20 speech ‘extremely harmful’
• Mainland china’s
  countermeasures ‘legitimate, legal and necessary’
• Lai used ‘country’
  to refer to Taiwan throughout his speech, has no sincerity in
  promoting cross-strait exchanges
• China’s drills
  around Taiwan are ‘punishment’ for Lai’s provocation

• Taiwan’s DPP govt and external forces must stop seeking independence,
  or every provocation will be met with counter-attacks, and
  counter-attacks will become more ‘intense’
