Bush: US supports 'one-China' policy
Copied in from Reuters (2005-11-17)
KYOTO, Japan - US President George W. Bush reiterated on Wednesday that
Washington supported a "one-China policy" and said that Beijing and Taipei
should settle their differences peacefully. Bush is on a week-long,
four-nation Asian tour that will also take him to China, South Korea and
Mongolia.
He made the remarks at a joint news conference with his close ally, Prime
Minister Junichiro Koizumi, following talks with the Japanese leader.
He said the one-China policy remains unchanged. "It is based on the three
communiques, the Taiwan Relations Act and our belief that there should be no
unilateral attempts to change the status quo by either side."
Bush said the US will continue to stress the need for a dialogue between the
Chinese mainland and Taiwan "that leads to a peaceful resolution of their
differences."
So what? George Dubbya "typical European"?
