China 'will not sit idly by' over US arms sale to Taiwan

This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 63%. (I'm a bot)


> China "Will not sit idly by" if the U.S. proceeds with a sale of advanced F-16V fighter jets to Taiwan, a senior Chinese army officer said Thursday while warning of other potential countermeasures in addition to punishing foreign firms involved in the deal.

> Interested in China? Add China as an interest to stay up to date on the latest China news, video, and analysis from ABC News.

> China has made such threats regarding previous arms sales by the U.S., but they've had limited effect because the companies involved are either important to China's own nascent commercial aviation industry or have little or no business with the country.

> Most recently, China pledged sanctions against the U.S. in July when the Trump administration said it was considering a $2.2 billion sale of tanks and air missiles to Taiwan.

> The sale would be of little use "Beyond making profits for American arms makers, while further undermining relations between China and the U.S. and China and Taiwan," said Cao.

> China fiercely opposes all arms sales to Taiwan but has specifically objected to advanced fighter jets such as the F-16V, whose Active Electronically Scanned Array, or AESA, radar is compatible with the F-35 stealth fighters operated by the U.S. Air Force, Navy and Marines.
