BEIJING - China’s Foreign Ministry said on Thursday it had lodged “solemn representations” with the United States to complain about a planned U.S. sale of advanced torpedoes to Chinese-claimed Taiwan. China firmly opposes U.S. arms sales to Taiwan, ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian told a daily news briefing in Beijing.

Interfere in China's internal affairs

I think the world has a lot to complain about with China. They are in no position to complain about anything till they are transparent about exactly how this pandemic started and brought the entire world to a standstill.

Wah wah... Crybabies!

China does not own our current Government, they may own the Bidens and maybe the last two Democrat administrations but not all of us!

U.S. sales weapons to a separatist forces of China and threat China not to deal with a sovereign state like Iran,what a rascaldom country

I support Taiwan

China is a land grabber of neighbor country most uncivilized nation.

Shameless, Taiwan does not belong to China

In return of the verbal support from the US, TW government has to buy $180 milion MK-48 torpedo form America, what a business ! Shame on TW province !

US Foreign policy

Why sell to Taiwan...just directly drop in china....for 300K deaths across world they donated $2Bn.... World will donate $4Bn to them

China is a violent, brutal, neoliberal Country. Taiwan TaiwanIsNotChina

I say we shouldn't sell Taiwan any weapons... we should just GIVE them to Taiwan. CCPVirus

Taiwan as an independent country, has consistently been a partner in promoting freedom, democracy and peace worldwide. Taiwan deserves international acceptance and respect.

Sell them Nukes. Taiwan is good!

Then do not buy American beef and barley if you dare to.

Too bad , china

Thank you America for standing with a democratic country. Now at least unlike Hong Kong, Taiwan will have a stronger position.

So, what are you gonna do about it?

China want to flex its small muscle . The US will destroy China .

Taiwan has a right to defend itself against external aggression.

China should go to hell.. Sell Taiwan nukes if possible.. 🇹🇼🇹🇼🇹🇼🇹🇼

The best liar award goes to China 🏆 India

The US is trying to get Taiwanese people killed by doing this. No amount of weapons will ever make Taiwan stronger than China.

What is wrong with that?

don't complain, just flood califonia with heavy arms when they want to secede

China complains all kinds of things.

U.S. to sell Taiwan $180 million worth of torpedoesThe U.S government has notified Congress of a possible sale of advanced torpedoes to Taiwan worth around $180 million, a move likely to further sour already tense ties between Washington and Beijing, which claims Taiwan as Chinese territory. You probably get half a dozen torpedoes for that price, but still a provocative move. how much is it per torpedo? 😅 American sold some F-16s to taiwan with the price of a F-35 per plane, they are fat sheep ready to be harvested 🤣 and Taiwan is enjoying it, rip Taiwan 🇹🇼 😯😯😯...Beijing won’t like this. They won’t like this one bit.
