BEIJING, Nov. 12 (Xinhua) -- China on Wednesday expressed "strong dissatisfaction and resolute opposition" to egregious remarks about Taiwan made in parliament by Japan's leader, saying they severely violated the one-China principle and constituted gross interference in China's internal affairs.

"The world has only one China and Taiwan is part of China," said Chen Binhua, a spokesperson for China's State Council Taiwan Affairs Office, at a regular press conference when asked about these comments.

Chen's remarks came after Japan's leader recently made statements concerning Taiwan during a parliamentary session. These statements drew sharp criticism from China.
