Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu on Thursday slashed the plan of the Taiwan authorities to hold a "Taiwan-Africa summit", saying the so-called "summit" is unpopular.
"The vast majority of the African countries support the one-China policy, and thus the so-called 'summit' will enjoy no popular support," said Jiang at a regular press conference.
She said by planning the so-called "Taiwan-Africa summit", reportedly to be held on Sunday, the Taiwan authorities were aimed at intensifying their efforts to promote the secessionist activities of the "Taiwan independence" force, which will gain no popular support.
"The friendship between China and Africa is the trend of the times, the vast majority of African countries are opposed to the secessionist activities by Taiwan authorities, and any attempt that is against the trend of history is doomed to fail," said Jiang.
