> Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said Thursday that there is no gray area on the Taiwan question and urged the Philippines to demonstrate its adherence to the one-China principle through concrete actions. Responding to Manila’s efforts to explore deeper cooperation with Taiwan to address so-called “gray zone” activities, she said Taiwan’s external exchanges must strictly follow the principle.
