Taiwan has no future prospect other than unification with China, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi said in Rome at the G-20 summit.

Wang was responding to questions on efforts by countries including the United States to support Taiwan’s greater participation in the United Nations and in the international community, according to a statementBloomberg Terminal posted on China’s foreign ministry website Saturday. Chinese officials slammed the U.S. earlier in the week and warned its support for Taiwan could pose “huge risks” to relations between Beijing and Washington.
