The party that aims to achieve Taiwan's independence won the presidential election, and the illusions of the Chinese Communist regime were not fulfilled. In addition, the country's successive congratulations to the party that won the election is deeply disturbing to China.
Singapore celebrated Taiwan's ruling Democratic Progressive Party candidate Lai Chingde's victory in the presidential election. China then complained to Singapore and issued a diplomatic warning.
Bloomberg News reported on January 16 that Singapore's Ministry of Foreign Affairs has previously stated that it has close and long-term friendly relations with Taiwan and the Taiwanese people, and will continue to develop bilateral relations based on the so-called "One China" policy.
Like Singapore's neighbors, China and the United States have sought to balance their deepening ties with the United States against the backdrop of growing geopolitical rivalry between the two countries. But this time, the celebration of Lai Qingde, who won the election, upset the Chinese.
