Q: It is reported that the so-called Taiwanese "vice president" Lai Ching-te had an online meeting with US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on January 28 during Lai's "transit" through San Francisco. Do you have any comment?

A: China rejects all forms of official interactions between the US and Taiwan and has lodged solemn representation with the US side over Lai Ching-te's virtual meetings with US lawmakers and others during Lai's "transit" through the US. We urge the US to abide by the one-China principle and the stipulations in the three China-US joint communiqués, immediately stop the erroneous acts of having official exchanges with Taiwan, avoid sending any wrong signal to the "Taiwan independence" separatist forces, and refrain from further undermining China-US relations and peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait.
