China's Foreign Minister Demands U.S. Stop 'Crossing Lines' Or World Will 'Remain Far From Tranquil'


China FM Demands U.S. Reverse "Dangerous" Taiwan Stance, Otherwise "World Will Be Far From Tranquil"

Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi gave his annual news briefing on Sunday and as expected he hammered away at America's presence and increasing attempts to insert itself politically in the South China Sea region.  


In particular he demanded that the US stop "crossing lines and playing with fire" on Taiwan in a stark message to Biden, underscoring that Beijing sees "no room for compromise or concessions" when it comes to Chinese sovereignty over the democratically ruled island. Biden's doubling down on many Trump policies when it comes to 'confronting' China was described by Wang as a "dangerous practice" that must be immediately reversed. 

And what sounds like both a warning to other global powers and a threat to the US in particular, Wang continued: "It is important that the United States recognizes this as soon as possible," adding that, "Otherwise, the world will remain far from tranquil."
