China expresses ire over meeting of U.S., Taiwan vice presidents

China has consistently opposed any form of official interaction between the United States and Taiwan, the foreign ministry said on Friday, after a brief meeting between the U.S. and Taiwanese vice presidents in Honduras.

Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian made the comment at a daily news briefing in Beijing. China considers self-governed Taiwan to be part of its territory.
