Chinese Foreign Minister Li Zhaoxing said in Beijing Friday morning that the United States should clearly understand the seriousness and sensitiveness of the Taiwan situation, halt its arms sales to Taiwan and stop its relevant military exchanges aiming to upgrade substantial relationship with Taiwan.

Li made these remarks when meeting with visiting Thomas Fargo, commander-in-chief of the Pacific Command of the United States Armed Forces, in Beijing on Friday morning.

Fargo started his China visit on July 21 at the invitation of Liu Zhenwu, commander of the Guangzhou Military Area Command. This has been his third trip to China.
