China's opposition to US arms sales to Taiwan region is consistent and clear. The US should strictly abide by the one-China principle and the three China-US joint communiqués, particularly the August 17 communiqué, stop arms sales to Taiwan, and take concrete actions to safeguard the stable development of China-US relations as well as peace and stability across the Taiwan Straits, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun said on Friday in response to a media inquiry on a Reuters report that claimed a major US arms package for Taiwan that includes advanced interceptor missiles is ready for US President Donald Trump's approval and could be signed after his trip to China this month.
