BEIJING, A Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson on Monday said that China rejects any intervention in its internal affairs. 'We firmly oppose any attempt to cobble together exclusionary groupings in the name of cooperation, grossly interfere in China's internal affairs, attack and smear China and stoke confrontation and antagonism,' Xinhua quoted Spokesperson Mao Ning as saying at a daily press briefing. She said that the situation in the South China Sea is generally stable. China is committed to safeguarding its own territorial sovereignty, maritime rights and maritime interests, while managing differences properly with countries directly concerned through dialogue and consultation. 'Certain non-regional countries have sought to flex their muscles and incite confrontation in the South China Sea, which is not conducive to peace and stability in the region,' she said. 'I want to stress that Taiwan is an inalienable part of China's territory, and the Taiwan question is entirely China's internal affairs an d brooks no foreign interference,' Mao said. She said that the key to maintaining peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait is upholding the one-China principle and firmly opposing separatist moves toward 'Taiwan independence.'
