The Chinese Foreign Ministry condemned the meeting between Taiwan’s President Tsai Ing-wen and US House Speaker Kevin McCarthy in California and vowed that China will take “resolute and effective measures to safeguard national sovereignty,” according to the official statement.
In a statement, the Chinese Foreign Ministry called Tsai’s visit to US “transit” and said that it “gravely violated” the one-China principle. China vows ‘resolute, effective’ response to high-level US meeting with Taiwan’s Prez
The Chinese foreign ministry also said that Tsai and McCarthy still hold the meeting with disregard for China’s serious representations and repeated warnings
The ministry, in the statement, also said that the US officials are giving Tsai a platform to make separatist remarks seeking “Taiwan independence.”
“This is essentially the United States acting with Taiwan to connive at “Taiwan independence” separatists’ political activities in the United States, conduct official contact with Taiwan and upgrade the substantive relations with Taiwan, and frame it as a transit”, according to the statement.
