Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian said at a regular media briefing on Thursday that Beijing "firmly opposes and strongly condemns" the continuous United States defensive weapons sale to Taiwan.
Lijian underlined that such actions by Washington "seriously undermine China's sovereignty and security interests, and seriously subvert China-US relations and peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait."
On Thursday last week, Chinese Ministry of Commerce spokesman Gao Feng noted that Beijing ''firmly opposes'' United States-Taiwan Initiative on 21st-Century Trade aimed to strengthen the countries' economic and trade relations.
