On Tuesday, Canada and Taiwan completed negotiations on a foreign investment promotion and protection arrangement. Global Affairs Canada stated it is looking forward to signing the deal "promptly."
"Taiwan is an inalienable part of China. China strongly opposes official interaction of any form between China's Taiwan region and countries that have diplomatic relations with China. That includes negotiating or signing any agreement of sovereign implication or official nature. This position is clear and consistent," the embassy told Sputnik.
China urges the Canadian government to abide by the One-China principle, and "prudently and properly handle relevant issues," the embassy added.
