After China's actions during the night, we called Ambassador Qin Gang to the White House to discuss the provocative actions of PRC”, White House spokesman John Kirby said in a statement issued to the Washington Post.
“We condemned the military actions of the PRC, which are irresponsible and contrary to our long-term goal to maintain peace and stability in Taiwan's Strait. ”
Yesterday's Washington Post published an ambassador's post, in which he presented China's view of the escalating dispute.
In the article entitled “why China opposes Peloss' visit to Taiwan”, Qin Gang wrote: Taiwan has been an integral part of China's territory for 1800 years. When China and the United States established diplomatic relations on January 1, 1979, the United States recognised in the joint communiqué with China that the government of the People's Republic of China is China's only legal government. Four decades have passed since then, and the United States has long committed itself to not developing formal relations with Taiwan.
According to the heritage order, House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi is the third-highest official in the US. Traveling on a military plane, Pelosi made a high profile “official visit to Taiwan this week, as her office described in the arrival declaration, and was given full protocol treatment by Taiwan's Democratic Progressive Party authorities, who do not hide it by seeking independence on their party platform. Such a visit has openly broken America's commitment not to developing formal relations with Taiwan. This position is controversial. Secretary - General NATO, Jens Stoltenberg, said yesterday that China has no reason to react, as “The US and other NATO allies have paid regular visits to senior officials in Taiwan during the years”.
The meeting took place between Kurt Campbell, the captain of Asia of US President Joe Biden, and Qin, according to a White House official who spoke about Postus anonymously.
News of the meeting, which took place on Thursday, came shortly after Nancy Pelos, head of the US House of Representatives, was sanctioned by China for her visit to Taiwan. /Abcnews.al/
