Mainland condemns Taiwan institution's distortion of war against Japanese aggression
Zhu Fenglian, a spokesperson for the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office, speaks at a press conference in Beijing, August 13, 2025.
A mainland spokesperson on Wednesday condemned Taiwan's "Academia Historica" for referring to the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression as "the end of the Sino-Japanese War and post-war handover" in a recent statement.
Zhu Fenglian, a spokesperson for the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office, made the remarks in response to a media query at a regular press conference.
Zhu said that this distortion deliberately downplays the brutality of Japanese militarist aggression, negates the just nature of the resistance war, and overlooks its historic victory.
"It reflects not only ignorance of history, but also a desecration of the sacrifices made by the entire nation," she said.
