China Welcomes Papua New Guinea's Closure of Taipei Economic Office, Offers Expanded LNG Imports
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun said on November 9, in response to a post-press-conference question, that China appreciates Papua New Guinea's closure of the "Taipei Economic Office in Papua New Guinea."
According to the ministry, Taiwan's foreign affairs department announced on November 6 that it would close the office and sign no new spot liquefied natural gas purchase contracts with Papua New Guinea. The Taiwan side also said Papua New Guinea had unilaterally required its personnel to leave by a set deadline and pushed through the closure.
Guo said the Papua New Guinea government's closure of the office once again shows that the one-China principle represents the prevailing consensus and trend of the international community. China appreciates this and stands ready to keep firmly supporting each other's core interests and major concerns with Papua New Guinea.
He added that China is willing to expand imports of liquefied natural gas from Papua New Guinea and deepen economic, trade and other cooperation to enrich the two countries' comprehensive strategic partnership.
