                                        <p>BEIJING -- A peace pact across the Taiwan Strait will benefit both sides, but more efforts should be made to create a proper environment for reaching it, a mainland spokeswoman said on Wednesday.</p> <p>A peace pact will eventually end hostilities across the strait and meet the expectations of people on both sides, said Fan Liqing, a spokeswoman from the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office, at a regular press conference.</p> <p>The two sides will focus on negotiations based on the 1992 Consensus and talk about economic issues before touching more difficult political ones, she said.</p> <p>Negotiators did not talk about the peace pact at the seventh round of cross-Strait talks, which ended last month, Fan said.</p> <p>Fan denied a claim raised by Taiwan's Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) that the mainland has attempted to interfere with the election of Taiwan's regional leader.</p> <p>"Our stance is not to interfere with any elections in Taiwan," she said. </p> |
