China has rejected President-elect Donald Trump's suggestion he could use American policy on Taiwan as a bargaining chip between the two nations.
The country's foreign ministry described the 'one China' policy as 'non-negotiable', in a statement released on Sunday.
Since recognizing Beijing in 1979, Washington has maintained only unofficial ties with Taiwan, the self-governing island that Beijing considers its territory - a status quo that Trump has repeatedly threatened to upend since winning the November election.

It must be genetic.
Great then just tell China the policy is scrapped.
China can't expect to flagrantly push it's weight around, seize the South China Sea, hand militarily threaten anyone who doesn't agree with what is already determined to be a breach of international law, and did not have any negative ramifications. It is hypersensitive to the Taiwan issue, it would be very easy just to recognize them. It would cost the United States nothing, and cause the Chinese great distress. China is going to have to understand that the United States interest in Freedom of navigation is just as important as China's interested in a China reality.
