The USA must end its military cooperation with Taiwan. This was stated by China's top military officer Zhang Youxia to the USA's national security adviser Jake Sullivan during his visit to Beijing, according to China's defense department.
China demands that the USA stops its military cooperation with Taiwan, stops arming Taiwan, and stops spreading false information related to Taiwan, Zhang said to Sullivan, according to the department.
Sullivan also met with China's President Xi Jinping on Thursday, reports the state news agency New China.
