CHINA’S military will crush any major moves towards independence by Taiwan, according to a Beijing government policy paper released yesterday.
The defence paper was released as senior Chinese lawmakers discussed a draft anti-secession law that analysts say may legally bind China to take military action if the island it claims as a renegade province declares statehood.

Taipei called on the world community "to stop China before it is too late".
