China filed complaints with Canada over warship in Taiwan Strait

BEIJING (Reuters) – China has lodged complaints with Canada through military and diplomatic channels after a Canadian warship sailed through the Taiwan Strait, Chinese defence ministry said on Friday.

The act “caused disturbance and stirred up trouble”, the ministry said in a statement.

“We warn Canada that it should abide by the One-China Principle, be cautious in its words and deeds on the Taiwan issue,” ministry spokesperson Zhang Xiaogang said.
