China warned the U.S. to “refrain from illusions or miscalculations” over Taiwan, while Washington criticized Beijing for “provocative and destabilizing”.

Yang Jiechi said that U.S. President Joe Biden has repeatedly stated that the U.S. has no intention of engaging in a new Cold War, nor does it change the Chinese regime, nor does it support “Taiwan independence”.
“But the reality is that the United States has long been determined to strengthen its comprehensive restraint and suppression of China, which not only fails to solve the domestic problems of the United States, but also pushes the US-China relationship into an extremely difficult situation, causing great harm to both sides. “Exchange and cooperation. Yang Jiechi said that this situation is not conducive to China, the United States and the rest of the world.
A senior White House official said Mr. Sullivan reiterated U.S. policy toward Chinese sovereignty but “expressed concern about Beijing’s coercive and provocative actions in the Taiwan Strait.”
The atmosphere at the meeting was milder than last week, when China’s defense minister warned Beijing not to “fear a war with Taiwan,” while the U.S. defense secretary criticized Beijing’s “provocative” military activities as destabilizing. However, the meeting did not lead to any compromise between the two countries on their core differences, especially on the Taiwan issue.
White House officials, however, praised the dialogue, as it indicated that lines of communication remained “to ensure that all parties understand each other’s intentions and priorities.” “This is important to avoid misinformation, misinformation and reduce the risk of risk,” the official said.
The Taiwan issue has been a hot issue in US-China bilateral relations in recent years. China has long viewed Taiwan as a province awaiting reunification and has vowed to use force if necessary. The United States has no formal relationship with Taiwan, but is Taiwan’s main arms supplier.
President Biden said on May 23 that the United States would intervene militarily if China attacks Taiwan, saying Beijing has no right to occupy Taiwan by force. The U.S. president also warned that China was taking a risk by sending multiple planes close to the island’s airspace and conducting naval exercises in the region.
A day later, however, Mr. Biden confirmed that a policy of “strategic ambiguity” toward Taiwan remained in place, with Washington helping to build the island’s self-defense capabilities but not committing to military measures to defend the island so as not to anger the island. Beijing.
