China believes that the United States has violated the Shanghai Communiqué by selling arms to Taiwan. The Communiqué, which was an important diplomatic document signed by the United States and China in 1972, acknowledged that all Chinese on either side of the Taiwan Strait maintain there is but one China and that Taiwan is a part of China. The U.S. arms sales to Taiwan are seen by China as a violation of the principles established in the Communiqué, particularly the U.S. acknowledgment of the "One China" policy and its commitment to gradually reduce its military presence and arms sales to Taiwan.
