Beijing has issued a strong statement regarding the recent US agreement to sell US$330 million in fighter jet parts to Taiwan. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that this deal represents a significant violation of the “one-China principle,” which dictates that China is the sole legal government of Taiwan. The Pentagon announced the agreement, marking the first arms sale with Taiwan since the Trump administration’s return to Washington. Beijing views the deal as a grave infringement upon established diplomatic relations and a serious challenge to international stability. The statement highlights the importance of this principle within Beijing’s geopolitical strategy.
