White House rebukes China, vows to help Taiwan
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The White House rebuked China on Monday for threatening Taiwan and promised to fulfill its obligations to aid in the island's defense.
The U.S. warning was issued after China, just days before Taiwanese President Chen Shui-bian starts his second term, threatened to crush any steps towards independence "firmly and thoroughly at any cost."
"We reject those portions of the statement that threaten the use of force to resolve differences between Beijing and Taipei," a senior Bush administration official said.
"Threats to use force have no place in civilized international discourse, and Beijing merely hurts its own case by using them," the official added. "Such comments are especially unhelpful at this delicate time, and they necessitate that we firmly restate our intention to fulfill our obligations under the Taiwan Relations Act."
China has urged the United States to drop the Taiwan Relations Act, the law that mandates Washington to supply Beijing's archrival with defensive weapons.
Beijing considers Taiwan a renegade province to be reunited with the mainland, by force if necessary.
Beijing and Taipei have been diplomatic rivals since 1949, when Nationalists led by Chiang Kai-shek lost a civil war on the mainland, fled to the island and set up a government there.
The United States has urged China and Taiwan to ease tensions through dialogue.
"The United States believes that cross-strait dialogue is essential to preserving peace and stability in the region and we welcome all actions on both sides that promote it," the official said.
Chen has been testing Beijing's patience with plans to hold a referendum on a new constitution in 2006 and adopt it in 2008. He says the new constitution is to deepen democracy in Taiwan, but China sees it as a formal declaration of statehood.
