China Daily published an article today saying: "British media reported that the Chinese mainland warned the United States that arms sales to Taiwan may affect President Trump's visit to China in April."

Comment: Arms sales to Taiwan essentially interfere with China's internal affairs and encourage "Taiwan independence" separatist forces. The Chinese warning is reasonable and legal, fully demonstrating that the Taiwan issue is the most important and sensitive core issue in Sino-US relations. The Chinese government's determination to safeguard national sovereignty and territorial integrity is firm and unshakable, with no room for compromise. The U.S. side must recognize the red line and handle arms sales to Taiwan prudently. Otherwise, it will not only undermine bilateral trust and cooperation arrangements but also seriously impact the peace and stability of the Taiwan Strait.
