China opposes the United States having official exchanges with Taiwan, Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu said Tuesday.
Jiang made the remarks when asked to comment on Taiwan leader Ma Ying-jeou's Honduras tour with scheduled stopover in the United States.
Jiang said at a regular press briefing that China opposes the United States having any official exchanges and contact with Taiwan and this position remained clear and consistent.
Jiang said, "We demand that the United States abide by the principles laid out in the three Sino-US joint communiques and properly deal with the related issue with caution."
