The European Union (EU) reiterated its "One China" policy Monday and expressed its hope that the Taiwan issue can be solved through peaceful means.

In a statement issued after China's National People's Congress passed the Anti-Secession Law in the same day, Luxembourg acting as the EU's rotating presidency said that the EU adheres to its persistent "One China " policy.

It also hoped that the Taiwan issue can be solved peacefully. "The European Union urges all parties to avoid any unilateral action which might revive tensions ," it said.

The EU encouraged both sides of the Taiwan Strait to develop the initiatives that contribute to dialogue and mutual understanding in the spirit of the agreement on the direct air links established during the Chinese Spring Festival.

On the relationship across the Taiwan Strait, the EU said that the relationship should rest on a constructive dialogue and pursuit of concrete progress, holding that this is the only way tobenefit both sides and to lead to an peaceful resolution of the Taiwan issue.
