Zhang said that the United States helping Taiwan test-fire Patriot missile has violated the three Sino-U.S. joint communiques, especially the August 17 Communique, stressing that the conduct by the U.S. has infringed upon the sovereignty of China and interfered in China's internal affairs. This conduct by the United States has not only escalated the tension across the Taiwan Straits, but also damaged the peace and stability of the Asia-Pacific region, she noted. China demands the United States immediately stop arms sales to Taiwan and end its military cooperation with Taiwan, so as to avoid the damage to Sino-U.S. relations, she said. She said that the early reunification of the motherland is the common wish of all Chinese people including Taiwan compatriots, and it is also an irreversible historic trend. She urged the Taiwan authority to have a clear mind about this historic trend, and come back to the right track of the one-China principle and reunify with the motherland. **** ______________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
