China may cancel naval exchanges with US over Taiwan contact (03/19/2002) (chinadaily.com.cn) China was Monday preparing to cancel naval exchanges with the United States in reaction for Washington allowing Taiwan's so-called "defense minister" to meet US officials in Florida, according to reports by People's Daily. The visit of Tang Yaoming to the US has given rise to strong dissatisfaction amongst Chinese. "The Chinese side will make a strong reaction felt in the area of military exchanges between the two countries (and) is preparing to cancel plans by the Chinese navy to visit the US late this year," People's Daily said. US naval ship visits to China would also be affected, said the People's Daily. Taiwan's Tang met with US Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz and US Assistant Secretary of State James Kelly last week on the sidelines of the defense conference in Florida. China has expressed strong opposition to the meeting, twice calling in US Ambassador to China Clark Randt for representation. During Randt's latest meeting with Chinese diplomats on Saturday, Vice Foreign Minister Li Zhaoxing said the Taiwan question has been "a burden on the back of the United States for more than half a century", adding that continued US involvement with Taiwan will not only preserve the burden, but also deeply compromise US-China relations. Li also expressed "strong indignation and firm opposition" to a recent US nuclear arms review, which listed China as a potential target. Mutual naval visits between the two sides began in 1997, but have been frequently interrupted by political turmoil in the relationship, including the May 1999 bombing by US-led NATO planes of China's embassy in Yugoslavia. www1.chinadaily.com.cn
