UNITED NATIONS: The United States-United Nation's mission has gravely interfered with China's internal affairs by openly supporting Taiwan's participation in the United Nations, said a spokesperson of the permanent mission of China to the UN on Saturday (May 2).
"In a tweet on May 1, the US mission to the United Nations gave open support to the Taiwan region for participating in the UN.
"The Chinese mission hereby expresses strong indignation and firm opposition," the spokesperson noted. "The one-China principle enjoys popular support and meets the call of the times, and represents the consensus of the international community. Resolution 2758 of the UNGA has restored the lawful seat of the People's Republic of China at the UN and affirmed the one-China principle at the organization, which has been strictly observed across the UN system and widely respected by UN member states," the spokesperson added.
"While the coronavirus is raging across the world, people of all countries are calling for international solidarity in fighting the pandemic. Political manipulation by the United States on an issue concerning China's core interests will poison the atmosphere for cooperation of Member States at a time when unity and solidarity is needed the most. The U.S. attempt to divert attention and shift blame is futile and cannot fool the international community," said the spokesperson.
