Recently, the House of Representatives of the Netherlands adopted  Taiwan-related motion again, involving the fields of economy and trade. etc. The spokesperson of the Chinese Embassy in the Netherlands has the following comments:

Taiwan is an inalienable part of China`s territory. China strongly opposes official interaction of any form between China`s Taiwan region and countries that have diplomatic relations with China. That includes negotiating or signing any agreement that implies sovereignty and has an official nature. The Dutch motion gravely violates the one-China principle and grossly interferes in China's internal affairs. China deplores and strongly opposes this move.

We hope the Dutch side could bear in mind the overall interests of China-Netherlands and China-EU relations, abide by the one-China principle, deal with Taiwan-related issues with prudence, avoid sending wrong signals to “Taiwan independence” forces in the name of economic cooperation or legal assistance. etc, and maintain a momentum of steady and positive development of our bilateral relations.
