Modi’s statement on Taiwan created a stir, China got furious

The NDA government is ready for its third term. Narendra Modi is going to take oath as the Prime Minister for the third time. PM Modi has received congratulatory messages from many countries. Among these, there is also a country whose congratulatory message and then PM Modi’s reply has irritated China. PM Modi replied to the congratulatory message received from the President of Taiwan. PM Modi said that India is ready for close relations with Taiwan. China’s Foreign Ministry has objected to this reply given to Taiwan. China claims that Taiwan is a part of Beijing, so India should oppose the congratulatory message.

China’s Foreign Ministry said that there is only one China in the world. Taiwan is an integral part of the territory of the People’s Republic of China. The spokesperson said that the one-China principle is a universally recognized norm in international relations and a prevailing consensus in the international community. The Chinese Embassy in India reiterated that Taiwan is an integral part of China’s territory. The embassy spokesperson further stressed that one-China is a universally recognized norm in international relations and a prevailing consensus in the international community.

Further, it also stressed that India should recognise and oppose the political calculations of the Taiwan authorities on the One-China policy. The spokesperson said that India has diplomatic relations with China and is well aware of China’s position. On the One-China principle, India has made serious political commitments and it should recognise, be concerned about and oppose the political calculations of the Taiwan authorities. After the results of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections were announced, Taiwan President Lai Ching-te congratulated him on his third consecutive victory in the general elections and said that he looked forward to expanding the “rapidly growing” relations between the two countries.
