China firmly opposes and strongly condemns the U.S. government’s approval of $11 billion in arms sales to Taiwan, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun said.

Axar.az informs, citing Gloabal Times, according to report, the US side has openly announced a massive arms sales package to sell advanced weapons to Taiwan, which seriously violates the one-China principle and the three China-US joint communiqués, gravely infringes upon China's sovereignty, security and territorial integrity, severely undermines peace and stability across the Taiwan Straits, and sends a seriously wrong signal to "Taiwan independence" separatist forces.

China urges the US side to abide by the one-China principle and the three China-US joint communiqués, honor the solemn commitments made by US leaders, and immediately stop the dangerous act of arming Taiwan. China will take resolute and forceful measures to defend its sovereignty, security and territorial integrity.
