The revision of the fact sheet on U.S.-Taiwan relations by the U.S. State Department, which seriously regressed its position on Taiwan-related issues, seriously violated the one-China principle and the three Sino-U.S. joint communiques, seriously violated international law and basic norms of international relations, and sent a serious wrong signal to the Taiwan independence separatist forces.

美國國務院修改美臺關係概況介紹，在涉臺問題上立場嚴重倒退，嚴重違背一箇中國原則和中美三個聯合公報，嚴重違反國際法和國際關係基本準則，向臺獨分裂勢力發出嚴重錯誤信號。
