发帖数: 61690 | 1 China will "take off the gloves" and take strong action if U.S. President-
elect Donald Trump continues to provoke Beijing over Taiwan once he assumes
office, two leading state-run newspapers said on Monday.
In an interview with the Wall Street Journal published on Friday, Trump said
the "One China" policy was up for negotiation. China's foreign ministry, in
response, said "One China" was the foundation of China-U.S. ties and was
non-negotiable.
Trump broke with decades of precedent last month by taking a congratulatory
telephone call from Taiwan President Tsai Ing-wen, angering Beijing which
sees Taiwan as part of China.
"If Trump is determined to use this gambit in taking office, a period of
fierce, damaging interactions will be unavoidable, as Beijing will have no
choice but to take off the gloves," the English-language China Daily said.
The Global Times, an influential state-run tabloid, echoed the China Daily,
saying Beijing would take "strong countermeasures" against Trump's attempt
to "impair" the "One China" principle.
"The Chinese mainland will be prompted to speed up Taiwan reunification and
mercilessly combat those who advocate Taiwan's independence," the paper said
in an editorial.
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying said the United States was
clearly aware of China's position on "One China". |
