Chicoms: Sell us weapons even though weâre going to attack Taiwan
China appealed to the European Union on Tuesday to go ahead with plans to lift a 15-year-old arms embargo, reacting angrily to reports that action might be delayed because of Beijing's passage of a law authorizing a military attack on Taiwan. "Linking these two issues is unreasonable," said Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Liu Jianchao. "The passage of the anti-secession law is an effort to ease tensions across the Taiwan Straits. ... The key to ease tensions is to check Taiwan's secessionary forces and to stop all secessionist activities."
You will sell us weapons to use against Taiwan and you will do it now! Now I see where the Norks got their charming approach to diplomacy.
