(ANSA) - BEIJING, APRIL 27 - China warns the United States that the process of "reunification" of Taiwan "with the homeland cannot be stopped" and that support for the island will only bring "unbearable consequences" for Washington.
This is the warning addressed by Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin both in Washington and in Taipei, following the declarations of the American Secretary of State Antony Blinken on the determination of the United States to ensure that the island has "all the necessary means to defend itself against any potential. aggression, including unilateral action from China ".
Beijing, the spokesman added in the daily briefing, expressed "strong dissatisfaction and firm opposition" to Blinken's words.
"US leaders have repeatedly stated that they do not support Taiwan's independence, but they continue to have weapons and conduct official trade."
The United States "should not underestimate the determination of 1.4 billion Chinese" in defending national sovereignty and territorial integrity.
"The betrayal will not only push Taiwan into a dangerous situation, it will also lead to unsustainable consequences for the United States," Wang concluded.
