China complains about Dutch news report on Taiwan, saying European public broadcaster should "adhere to the one-China principle" and "not provide [a] platform for 'Taiwan independence' forces'"

On Saturday, Dutch public broadcaster NOS broadcast a story on the chip industry in Taiwan, reporting that "the country sees it as life insurance against an invasion by rival China" and interviewing former Taiwanese deputy minister of foreign affairs Roy Chun Lee.

China claims democratically governed Taiwan as its own territory and has never renounced the use of force to bring it under control. Taiwan objects to China’s sovereignty claims and says only the island’s people can decide their future.
