Hey, amigos! 🌏 There's some serious talk happening between China and India right now. Let's dive in!
On Thursday, Mao Ning, the spokesperson for China's Foreign Ministry, called on India to handle issues related to the Taiwan region carefully and properly. She emphasized the importance of refraining from any form of official interactions with Taiwan. 🇨🇳🇮🇳
This comes after Taiwan announced the official operation of its new office in Mumbai, India. Mao Ning responded to this during a daily press briefing.
She stressed that there's only one China in the world, and Taiwan is an inalienable part of China's territory.
\"China firmly opposes any form of official contact and interactions between the Taiwan region and countries having diplomatic relations with China, including the mutual establishment of representative agencies. China has lodged stern representations with the Indian side,\" Mao stated.
Mao also reminded India of the one-China principle, which is a political commitment made by India and serves as the foundation for relations between the two nations.
China is urging India to adhere strictly to this commitment and handle Taiwan-related issues prudently, avoiding any form of official interactions with Taiwan.
Looks like things are heating up in Asia! 🌶️ Let's see how India responds to this diplomatic nudge.
