The intention of US President Donald Trump's administration to continue providing military support to Taipei raises serious concerns among Chinese authorities and threatens to undermine peace in the Taiwan Strait, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian said.
"We are seriously concerned about the information we have received," the Chinese diplomat stated regarding Washington's plans to provide military aid to Taiwan from the $5.3 billion in state funds recently unfrozen by the White House. According to media reports, this support is expected to amount to $870 million, TASS reported.
As Lin specified, Beijing will closely monitor the situation and "firmly protect the national sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity of the country." He emphasized that Washington should cease arming Taipei, as doing so threatens to "undermine peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait."
