France respects the one-China principle and is committed to the unity of China, a French Foreign Ministry deputy spokesman said Tuesday.
"The French stance is constant and unambiguous: France is committed to the principle of the unity of China," Alexandre Giorgini said at a daily press briefing.
"France is in favor of peace, dialogue and cooperation between the two shores and supports any initiative in this way," he added.
Asked about France's ties with Taiwan, which is part of China, Giorgini said France has an office in Taipei to facilitate and promote economic, cultural and scientific exchanges.
