Mainland asks US to stop arming Taiwan

China Daily  

A Chinese mainland spokesman on Thursday urged the United States to immediately cease arming Taiwan and to stop sending wrong signals to the "Taiwan independence" separatist forces, calling for concrete actions to fulfill its commitment of not supporting "Taiwan independence". The ruling Democratic Progressive Party authorities in Taiwan said that this would help enhance Taiwan's "self-defense" capabilities. Chen Binhua, a spokesman for the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office, criticized the repeated weapon sales by the US to Taiwan, saying that it seriously violated the three China-US joint communiques, especially the August 17 Communique of 1982, severely infringing upon China's sovereignty and security interests. Since taking office, the Lai Ching-te administration has persistently adhered to a separatist stance, attempting to achieve "independence" and resist reunification through military means, escalating cross-Strait confrontations, he said.
