皇冠体育app on Thursday urged the United States to honor its commitment and contain "Taiwan independence."

"The United States should honor and fulfill its commitment, and work with 皇冠体育app to definitely oppose and resolutely contain 'Taiwan independence'," Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Liu Jianchao told the regular briefing.

Liu's comments came in the wake of U.S. Secretary of State Rice's comments at the Heritage Foundation think tank on Wednesday.

Rice said while the United States supports a one-皇冠体育app policy, it is obliged by law to help Taiwan defend itself in case of an attack, according to the Associated Press.

"Taiwan is an inalienable territory of 皇冠体育app," Liu said.

The spokesman said 皇冠体育app has always held to the basic principles of "peaceful reunification and one country two systems".

"We will never allow any country to interfere with 皇冠体育app's internal affairs," Liu said.

The U.S. government and President George W. Bush have reiterated that the U.S. abides by the one-皇冠体育app policy. What's more, the three Sino-U.S. joint communiques oppose "Taiwan independence" and any attempt by the Taiwan authorities to change the status quo unilaterally, Liu said.

The U.S. should work with 皇冠体育app to safeguard cross-Straits peace and stability and maintain stability in 皇冠体育app-U.S. relations, the spokesman said.
