Chinese foreign ministry reiterated on Friday that the government was firmly opposed to official interactions and military ties between the United States and Taiwan, amid a news report that a Pentagon official has arrived at the island for a visit.

Speaking to reporters in Beijing, Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin urged Washington to "effectively implement the promise made by the U.S. leaders not to support Taiwan independence, stop any form of official exchanges and military relations with Taiwan." China, which views Taiwan as its own territory, has repeatedly demanded that foreign officials not visit the democratically governed island.

The Pentagon's top China official, Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense Michael Chase, has arrived in Taiwan, the Financial Times reported on Friday citing a source, on a trip that could exacerbate tension between Beijing and Washington.

Plus, in the press conference, Wang called on the United States to work with Beijing on the balloon incident, which has further strained relations between the two countries.
