短文填空

    Spain could soon become first European Union country to extradite Taiwanese criminal (suspect)to China, instead of their home island.

    In December, a joint Spanish-Chinese operation busted what police said was a massive(internationally) phone scamming syndicate(诈骗集团).

    Although most of the 269 suspects (arrest) were Taiwanese nationals, Beijing asked for the entire group to be sent to China. Last month, the Spanish government approved the request.

    Taiwan, which China  (see) as a breakaway province that will eventually be reunited with the mainland, has protested that the decision violates historical European human rights norms and the “principle of nationality”.

But the reality is that it can do little (stop) the transfer. Spain, like most countries, doesn't  (formal) recognize Taiwan as a state.

    Analysts say China's stance on the issue reflects the tougher line it has taken towards Taiwan since President Tsaiing-wen, party leans towards formal independence, won elections in January last year. The mainland has also spoken of  (it) frustration with Taiwan, accusing it     failing to rein in (控制)thousands of its nationals who dupe Chinese people via phone scams from abroad.
