On February 26, Foreign Ministry Spokesman Lin Jian presided over a regular press conference. A reporter asked, it is reported that the Trump administration has recently thawed $5.3 billion in "foreign aid funds", including $870 million in military aid to Taiwan. What is China's comment on this?
Lin Jian said that we are seriously concerned about the reports. The United States provides military assistance to Taiwan, China, seriously violates the one-China principle and the three Sino-US joint communiqués, seriously infringes on China's sovereignty and security interests, and sends serious wrong signals to the "Taiwan independence" separatist forces. China has always firmly opposed it. We urge the US to stop arming Taiwan and stop undermining peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait.
China will closely monitor the development of the situation and firmly defend national sovereignty, security and territorial integrity.
