BEIJING, March 27 (Xinhuanet) -- China firmly opposes that the United
States sent congratulations to the Taiwan authority after the announcement
of the election results by Taiwan electoral institution, said Chinese
Foreign Ministry spokesman Kong Quan here Saturday.
Kong made the remarks in response to a question that the US White
House spokesman expressed congratulations to the Taiwan authority after
the electoral institution of Taiwan announced the election results
Friday.
Kong said China firmly opposes the wrong deeds by the US, which has
violated the three China-US joint communiques and interfered in China's
internal affairs.
He said there is only one China in the world, and Taiwan is part of
China. The US government had time and again committed itself to adhering
to the "one-China" policy, abiding by the three China-US joint communiques
and opposing any words or activities of the Taiwan authority to change the
status quo of Taiwan or to move toward "Taiwan independence", Kong
said.
The US government should honor its words, he said.
