總統蔡英文日前於官邸宴請美國國務院次卿柯拉克(Keith Krach)代表團時表示,台美將更深化合作關係。稍後中共官媒《環球時報》推特發文表示,蔡英文顯然是在玩火,如果挑釁行為違反《反分裂法》,將挑起戰爭,蔡英文將被殲滅。對此,總統府推特轉發英國駐台記者的文章回應,只是與遠方來訪的朋友共進晚餐,鄰居就發送死亡威脅,要如何跟這樣的鄰居打交道?
《環球時報》推特指出,蔡英文在宴請美國國務院官員的晚宴上,聲稱要進一步加深與美國的關係,顯然是在玩火。如果她的挑釁行為違反《反分裂法》,將挑起戰爭,蔡英文將被殲滅。
Voice:Taiwan leader Tsai Ing-wen, who pledged deeper ties with the US at a dinner for a visiting senior State Department official,is clearly playing with fire. If any act of her provacation violates the Anti-Secession Law of China, a war will be set off and Tsai will be wiped out pic.twitter.com/hPZl42dVb1

對此,英國駐台記者史密斯(Nicola Smith)轉推了環時的推特指出,中國官媒在美國官員與台灣民選總統共進晚餐後發出了死亡威脅,這在哪個世界是可被接受的?
21日,總統府推特也轉發史密斯的推文回應,只是與遠方來訪的朋友共進晚餐,鄰居就發送死亡威脅,要如何跟這樣的鄰居打交道?
How do you deal with a neighbor sending you death threats just for having dinner with friends visiting from afar? Asking for a friend. https://t.co/5ncgr60DdV
