Taiwan has no future other than reunification with mainland, no intl status other than being part of China: FM Wang Yi
The island of Taiwan has no future other than reunification with the Chinese mainland, and it has no international legal status other than being part of China, Chinese State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi said in response to US calling for "meaningful participation" of Taiwan in the UN.
The US and some other countries could not stop the one-China principle 50 years ago, and they are much less likely to succeed in the 21st century. If they persist, they will pay the price, Wang said Friday in Rome, where he will attend the G20 summit.
Recently, the US and some other countries attempted to make breakthrough on the Taiwan question, which violates their political commitment made while establishing diplomatic ties with China and ignores the general will of UN members expressed in the Resolution 2758. The move also undermines the principles of the UN Charter and destructs the peace and stability in the Taiwan Straits, Wang said.
