BEIJING - China on Tuesday expressed strong opposition to some US congressmen for their issuing of a bill supporting Taiwan's United Nations membership.

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Liu Jianchao made the remarks at a regular press conference in the Chinese capital.

He said that it is known to all, there is only one China in the world, and Taiwan is an inalienable part of the Chinese territory. In addition, the People's Republic of China is the only legal government representing the whole of China.

This was widely acknowledged by the international community, including the United States, and was ensured by resolution 2758 of the UN National Assembly, he added.

"The one-China principle is not allowed to be questioned or denied," Liu said.
