China urges US to handle Taiwan-related issues as appropriate
China firmly opposed the US House of Representatives' recent passing of the "Taiwan Assurance Act of 2019" and has made stern representations to the American side, a spokesman for the Foreign Ministry said Wednesday.
The act seriously violated the one-China principle and provisions of the three Sino-US joint communiques, spokesman Geng Shang told a daily press briefing, saying it "rudely" interfered in China's internal affairs.
"We urge the US side to adhere to the one-China principle and provisions of the three Sino-US joint communiques and prevent the US Congress from advancing the bill, handle Taiwan-related issues as appropriate in a bid to avoid seriously harming China-US cooperation in important areas as well as peace and stability across in the Taiwan Strait," Geng stressed.
