🇨🇳 China has doubled down on its opposition to US arms sales to the Taiwan region, calling the practice a violation of the one-China principle and a threat to regional stability. Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Guo Jiakun emphasized the stance during a press briefing on Friday, March 13, 2026, urging Washington to 'cease provocations' and prioritize peace across the Taiwan Strait. 🌏⚖️
Guo stressed that the US must adhere to the three China-US joint communiques, including the 1982 August 17 Communique, which explicitly limits arms sales to Taiwan. 'Such actions gravely undermine China's sovereignty and security interests,' he stated, adding that cross-strait stability requires 'concrete actions, not empty promises.' ⚠️
The remarks come amid rising tensions in the Asia-Pacific, with young professionals and analysts closely watching how US-Taiwan military ties could impact global tech supply chains and investor confidence. 💼📉
