Since Nancy Pelosi's visit to Taiwan, relations between China and the United States have become more complex.

Lu Shaye, Chinese ambassador to France, returned to the situation at the microphone of Europe Soir.

"This visit violates the one-China principle, which is universal consensus," he said.

While relations seem more and more complex between China and the United States, following Nancy Pelosi's visit to Taiwan, Lu Shaye, Chinese ambassador to France, returned to the subject at the microphone of Europe 1.

"Between China and the United States, there are three joint communiqués and the Americans are committed to recognizing the government of the People's Republic of China (PRC) as the sole government of China and in this context, the United States does not can only have unofficial relations with Taiwan," he said.

"Nancy Pelosi's visit to Taiwan is not unofficial. Her visit contradicts the Americans' commitment and it violated the one-China principle, which is a universal consensus and norm shaping international relations. Before his visit, China asked the country to cancel this visit several times, that's why we are very shocked," added the Chinese ambassador to France.

"This visit is a stab in the back. President Xi Jinping recalled during his call with Joe Biden that those who play with fire will pay with fire. This is a serious provocation," he said. .
