Representative to the US King Pu-tsung (金溥聰) told lawmakers yesterday that he has never heard of the interpretation of the US’ “one China policy” that Washington does not recognize Taiwan as part of China.

At a meeting of the legislature’s Foreign Affairs and National Defense Committee, King was asked by Democratic Progressive Party Legislator Mark Chen (陳唐山) to explain the difference between Beijing’s “one China” policy and the US’ “one China” policy.
