China urges Germany to adhere to the one-China principle, said Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian on Tuesday.
Lin made the remarks at a regular press conference in Beijing while responding to a media query that a German official will go to China's Taiwan region this week.
"There is but one China in the world. Taiwan is an inalienable part of China's territory. The one-China principle is a universally recognized norm governing international relations and a common consensus of the international community. It also serves as the political foundation of the China-Germany relations. We urge Germany to adhere to the one-China principle, stop any form of official interactions with China's Taiwan region and stop sending wrong signals to 'Taiwan-independence' separatist forces," said Lin.

The Peruvian capital of Lima will soon see the completion of a major flood control project built by a Chinese company.
It does not rain frequently in Lima, but the Huaycoloro River overflowed in 2017 due to unusual heavy precipitation, affecting 30,000 families living along the river.
The 10.5-kilometer flood control project built by China International Water and Electric Corp. is set to be completed in January 2025.
"Extreme weather like El Nino can lead to flash floods and other natural disasters, So, such a project was launched," said Liu Hongmin, project manager with China International Water and Electric Corp.
The company has completed nearly 20 projects in Peru in fields including hydropower, flood control, road, bridge, power transmission and mining.
Peru is hosting APEC 2024, with the APEC Economic Leaders' Week underway in Lima.
The week will conclude with the APEC Economic Leaders' Meeting on Nov 15-16.
"The APEC meeting is an important event for our country, and we look forward to all countries, including our good friend China, to come and invest. Investment drives infrastructure construction, infrastructure construction generates more jobs, and employment brings about increases in income, foreign exchange and the development of tourism," said Hernan Yaipen Arestegui, Peruvian Minister of Authority of National Infrastructure.
