Chinese Foreign Ministry officials have said that Beijing “firmly opposes any form of official interaction between the U.S. and the Taiwan region,” and “firmly opposes the U.S. having any form of contact with ‘Taiwan independence’ separatist elements.” Beijing claims Taiwan as part of its territory and says it seeks “peaceful reunification” with Taiwan, which has never been ruled by the Chinese Communist Party.
Since the United States does not maintain official diplomatic relations with Taiwan, regular trips by Taiwanese leaders are routinely framed by both sides as transits rather than official visits.“Transit diplomacy is, to a considerable extent, a thermometer of Taiwan’s relations with the U.S.,” said Chung Chih-tung, assistant research fellow at the Institute for National Defense and Security Research, a government-funded think tank. Though unofficial, Tsai’s trip reaffirms the U.S.
The senior official said “transits are not visits, they are private and unofficial.” The official also said that Taiwan officials have typically met with members of Congress on their stops in the United States.
