China rebukes Singapore for congratulating new Taiwan leader

(Bloomberg) — Beijing has reminded Singapore of its “one-China” position on Taiwan in a rare show of public disapproval after the city-state congratulated Vice President Lai Ching-te and the ruling Democratic Progressive Party for its election win.

Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Mao Ning said that “China has immediately made solemn démarches to Singapore.” That’s the equivalent of a diplomatic reprimand.

“Singaporean leaders stated on multiple occasions that the Taiwan question is ‘a deep red line’ for China,” Mao said on Monday. “China values this statement and hopes that Singapore will strictly abide by the one-China principle and uphold the overall friendly relations between China and Singapore with concrete actions.”

Singapore’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs did not immediately reply to an emailed request seeking comment.

The Southeast Asian country, like most neighbours, has sought to balance deep ties with both China and the US amid a growing geopolitical competition between the two. It has also been vocal in promoting further dialogue in cross-strait relations even though Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong has downplayed the likelihood of an imminent conflict over Taiwan.

Singapore’s Foreign Ministry in its comments on Sunday touted a “close and longstanding friendship with Taiwan and the Taiwanese people,” as it had in years past, saying it would continue to foster ties based on its “One China” policy. “Singapore has consistently supported the peaceful development of cross-strait relations,” it said.
