A Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman said Tuesday that Taiwan leader Chen Shui-bian's "perverse acts" have incurred strong criticism from the people across the Taiwan Straits and the international community.

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Liu Jianchao made the remark at a routine press conference.

"The Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council has issued a statement on this, which represents Chinese government's solemn and just stand", Liu added.

Taiwan leader Chen Shui-bian announced in Taipei ON Monday afternoon a decision to put an end to the operation of the "National Unification Council" and application of the "National Unification Guidelines".

Chen's acts attempted to challenge the peace and endanger the ties between the two sides across the Taiwan Straits, Liu warned.
