US arms package for Taiwan condemned
On Friday, the US announced a $6.4-billion arms package for Taiwan. This has harmed Sino-US relations, and reflects the Cold War mentality and moral hypocrisy of the US, says an article on Taihai Net. Excerpts:
Despite the Chinese mainland's opposition, the US government has decided to sell arms worth $6.4 billion to Taiwan. A US spokesperson even said the arms sale would contribute to maintaining security and stability across the Straits.
This blatant interference in the country's domestic affairs has angered the Chinese people. The word "Cold War" became a historical term almost 20 years ago, but the US still suffers from Cold War mentality.
