Hey amigos! 🌟 Let's dive into some global news that just dropped this weekend. China has expressed strong opposition to a recent move by the United States, and it's making headlines across the globe! 🌍
On Friday, U.S. President Joe Biden signed the \"Promoting a Resolution to the Tibet-China Dispute Act\" into law. This act touches on the sensitive topic of Xizang (the region known to many as Tibet), which China considers an integral part of its territory since ancient times. 🏔️🇨🇳
The Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson didn't hold back, stating that this move by the U.S. \"grossly interferes in China's domestic affairs\" and \"undermines China's interests.\" 😠 They believe the act sends a \"severely wrong signal\" to those advocating for \"Tibet independence,\" which China firmly opposes.
The spokesperson emphasized that Xizang enjoys social stability, economic prosperity, and that the well-being of its people is well protected. 🏙️✨ They warned that any attempts to destabilize Xizang to contain and suppress China are doomed to fail.
China urged the U.S. to honor its commitments of recognizing Xizang as part of China and not supporting \"Tibet independence.\" 🚫 If the U.S. continues down what China calls the \"wrong path,\" they hinted at taking \"resolute measures\" to defend their sovereignty and development interests.
President Biden, on the other hand, mentioned that the act \"does not change longstanding bipartisan United States policy to recognize the Tibet Autonomous Region and other Tibetan areas of China as part of the People's Republic of China.\" 🇺🇸
This development adds another layer to the complex relationship between these two global giants. 🌐 It's a reminder of how international politics can affect regions and peoples, even those high up in the Himalayas! 🏔️
Stay tuned, amigos, as we keep an eye on how this story unfolds! 👀📲
