BEIJING (Reuters) – China criticised new U.S. navy assist to Taiwan on Sunday, saying the $571 million package deal critically violates the “one China principle” and provisions of joint communiques between China and the U.S.
China will take “all necessary measures” to guard its sovereignty and territorial integrity, a overseas ministry spokesperson stated, calling Taiwan “a red line that must not be crossed” in China-U.S. relations, based on an announcement launched by the ministry.
Beijing considers democratically ruled Taiwan its personal territory, a declare the federal government in Taipei rejects.
