China Warns US on Taiwan: ‘Playing With Fire’
by Emmitt Barry, Worthy News Correspondent
(Worthy News) – China’s government protested U.S. military aid to Taiwan, warning that the U.S. is “playing with fire” and cautioning that such actions “will get the U.S. burned.”
China issued a strongly worded statement, saying it “deplores and firmly opposes” President Joe Biden’s authorization of $571 million in military assistance to Taiwan, along with the Department of Defense’s confirmation of $295 million in approved arms sales. The White House authorized the package on Saturday, with the DOD confirming the approval on Friday.
The U.S. views Taiwan as a vital partner in the Indo-Pacific region and maintains a “robust unofficial relationship” with the island, according to the U.S. State Department.
However, U.S.-China relations remain tense over Taiwan, with Beijing reiterating in Sunday’s statement that Taiwan is “the first red line that cannot be crossed in China-U.S. relations.”
The statement from the Chinese Foreign Ministry urged the U.S. to cease arming Taiwan and to halt what it described as “dangerous moves that undermine peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait.”
Nevertheless, U.S. military sales and aid aim to bolster Taiwan’s defense and deter a potential Chinese attack.
In retaliation, China earlier this month imposed sanctions on more than a dozen American companies involved in U.S. arms sales to Taiwan.
