💨 Abstract

Beijing banned two Taiwanese ministers, Liu Shyh-fang and Cheng Ying-yao, from entering China, Hong Kong, and Macau for alleged separatist activities. Taipei condemned the move, accusing China of intimidation and undermining cross-strait relations. China claims Taiwan as its territory and has listed 14 individuals as "secessionists." Taiwan rejects Beijing's sovereignty claims and asserts its democratic rights. Recent Chinese military exercises around Taiwan have heightened tensions.
