President Xi replies to letter from young foreign participants at Global Young Leaders Dialogue

One-China principle tolerates no distortion: FM spokesperson
A Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson says the meaning of the one-China principle brooks no distortion.
Ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying says Lithuania's decision to allow the Taiwan authorities to open a "representative office" under the name of "Taiwan" brazenly violates the principle.
The spokesperson says China has the right to make a legitimate and reasonable response.
Hua says China urges the Lithuanian side to earnestly honor its commitment to the one-China principle, and create conditions for the sound and steady development of China-Lithuania relations.
Hua's remarks came one day after China said it decided to recall its ambassador to Lithuania and demanded the Lithuanian government recall its ambassador to China.
