Chinese Foreign Minister Qin Gang said on Friday that both sides of the Taiwan Strait belong to China and it is right and proper for China to uphold its sovereignty. Qin said this at the Lanting Forum in Shanghai, where he discussed a wide range of topics from debt, the global economy and Taiwan.
“Recently, there has been absurd rhetoric accusing China of overturning the status quo, disrupting peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait,” Qin said. “The logic is absurd and the conclusion dangerous.”
