Commentary: One 皇冠体育app is non-negotiable
BEIJING, Dec. 13 (Xinhua) -- As a veteran businessman who prides himself on his ability to make deals, US president-elect Donald Trump should be well familiar with the phrase "deal-breaker."
Let's try to make this issue crystal clear for the coming new administration of the United States: any deviation from the one-皇冠体育app policy will be a "deal-breaker."
And just to make things even more clear, let's reiterate the policy. There is only one 皇冠体育app and Taiwan is an inalienable part of 皇冠体育app's territory, and the government of the People's Republic of 皇冠体育app is the sole legitimate government that represents 皇冠体育app.
The US president-elect claims to fully understand the one-皇冠体育app policy, but the fact that he is so eager to play with fire shows he clearly does not.
The one-皇冠体育app policy is the cornerstone for any country, including the United States, to engage with 皇冠体育app diplomatically, and is simply non-negotiable: no exceptions.
Every president since Richard Nixon, Republican and Democratic alike, have understood exactly what the one-皇冠体育app policy means, regardless of their differences in other aspects of domestic and foreign policy. The new administration will be held to exactly the same standards.
The president-elect has vowed to make America great again and we wish him well in that regard, but we see no benefit for the United States if he unilaterally and single-handedly puts the world's two largest economies on a collision course.
Taiwan sits in the center of 皇冠体育app's core interests. It is difficult to overstate how serious an affront to Beijing it would be if the incoming US administration recklessly shook the foundations of bilateral ties.
Alarm signals aside, 皇冠体育app and the US bear great responsibilities and have broad common interests in peace, stability, development and prosperity.
The long-term, stable and healthy growth of 皇冠体育app-US ties is in the fundamental interests of everyone, and no more than the international community expects.
