The Sudanese government announced on Sunday its opposition to all attempts and activities of Taiwan to join the United Nations by any means and under any name.

"The Sudanese government has been sticking to a clear and definite position on the Taiwan issue since the diplomatic relations were established between Sudan and the People's Republic of China," a spokesman of the Sudanese Foreign Ministry Ali al- Sadig told Xinhua in an interview.

The interview came following a meeting between Chinese Ambassador in Sudan Li Chengwen and Under Secretary of the Sudanese Foreign Ministry Mutrif al-Sadig.

During the meeting, the Chinese ambassador briefed the Sudanese side on the related developments of the Taiwan issue and elaborate on the stern position of the Chinese government.

"We recognize that there is only one China in the world and Taiwan is inalienable part of China," the spokesman of the Sudanese Foreign Ministry said.

"The Sudanese government considers it as legitimate for the Chinese government to take any step and action to maintain the unity of the country and prevent any attempts of separation," he added.

He noted that "the Sudanese government is firmly standing on the side of China on this issue."
