Taiwan is at the core of China's core interests - Chinese defence minister - Reuters

Wei said the United States must respect China's core interests and hoped it could adopt a rational, practical policy towards China, and get China-U.S.

Earlier, Chinese state media quoted defence ministry spokesman Tan Kefei as saying the main reason for the current state of relations between China and the United States was that the United States made the wrong strategic judgment.

Tan said China was not responsible for the state of relations.
