“China demands that the US immediately withdraw its plan to sell weapons to Taiwan, cut off all military ties with the island, otherwise, the responsibility for the destruction of military relations between Beijing and Washington, as well as peace and stability in Taiwan, will fall entirely on the United States,” Tan said, as quoted by the ministry.
