Speaking in Beijing, State Councillor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi said the cause of current tensions was the Taiwan government's attempts to "rely on the United States for independence" and the United States and other countries trying to "use Taiwan to control China".
"Taiwan is a wanderer who will eventually come home, not a chess piece to be used by others. China must and will be reunified." China has been particularly angered by support for Taiwan from the United States, the island's most important international backer and arms supplier despite the absence of formal diplomatic ties.
