BEIJING (Reuters) – China’s embassy in South Korea on Tuesday said it resolutely opposes and condemns South Korean lawmakers visiting Taiwan to attend the so-called “inauguration ceremony of the leader”.
A spokesperson for the embassy said the move runs counter to the China-South Korea strategic cooperative partnership.
