US Arms Deliveries Have No Effect on Situation in Taiwan Strait: Chinese Foreign Ministry.

 The US arms supplies to Taiwan will not affect the situation in the Taiwan Strait or China's determination to defend national sovereignty and territorial integrity, Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokesman Lin Jian stated.

The Chinese diplomat commented on US President Joe Biden's decision to allocate $567 mln for arms supplies to Taiwan and other military assistance to the island.

"No matter how many weapons the United States supplies to Taiwan, it will in no way undermine (stability in the Taiwan Strait). China is determined to oppose Taiwan’s alleged 'independence' and defend its sovereignty and territorial integrity," Lin Jian said.

The Chinese foreign ministry spokesman once again urged Washington to "sincerely respect the one-China principle" and three joint communiques issued by the United States and China, as well as to stop any kind of Taiwan’s weaponizing.
