China says it wants to strengthen its ties with Taiwan. That’s a day
after state media said Beijing could go to war if a U-S bill promoting
closer ties with the Island state becomes law.
A senior leader from China’s ruling party said Beijing will deepen
solidarity and friendship with its compatriots in Taiwan. Yu Zheng-sheng
added that a parliamentary advisory body, which he heads, will spare no
effort to work together for its greater national interests and the
realization of the Chinese Dream. The developments come after the U-S
Senate on Thursday passed a bill that calls for encouraging visits
between the United States and Taiwan at all levels. China which
considers the self-ruled island as its own warned that Taiwan will get
burnt if it seeks to rely on foreigners.
