Soundbytes: China's defence ministry accused Taiwan's government on Thursday (December 28) of deliberately "hyping up" a military threat from China for electoral gain ahead of elections on the island in just over two weeks' time. Speaking at a monthly news conference in Beijing, Chinese defence ministry spokesperson Wu Qian said Taiwan's ruling party, Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), which Beijing regards as separatists, was to blame for the tensions.
