Xinhua: China strongly opposes Japan’s policies on Taiwa
China is strongly dissatisfied with “some negative tendencies” in Japan’s recent policies concerning the Taiwan issue, and is especially concerned with deepening the Japan-Taiwan ties in security, Chinese State Councilor Tang Jiaxuan said in Tuesday’s meeting with Japan’s Kyodo News Service president Toyohiko Yamanouchi.
Tang said the Taiwan issue concerns China’s sovereignty, reunification and core interests of the country, adding: “We have taken notice of the Japanese government which has repeatedly stated that it will observe the principles in the China-Japan joint statement and not support “Taiwan independence”.
