Quite embarrassingly Trump's Taiwan call exposes his inexperience, China state media say | World news | The Guardian

"Quite embarrassing for Trump and good for the US and Taiwan. "Donald Trump’s controversial decision to hold a 10-minute phone call with Taiwan’s president, Tsai Ing-wen, was caused by the billionaire’s lack of foreign policy experience, a mouthpiece for the Chinese government has claimed.

In an editorial published on Sunday, the China Daily, a state-run English-language newspaper, said the affair had “exposed nothing but his and his transition team’s inexperience in dealing ...with foreign affairs”.
Many had predicted that the call – the first known contact of its kind in almost four decades – would elicit a ferocious response from China’s leaders, who regard Taiwan as a breakaway province that should one day be reunified with the mainland.
However, Beijing’s public response has so far been measured, with the foreign ministry lodging a “solemn representation” with Washington and the foreign minister, Wang Yi, downplaying the development as “a petty move” by Taiwan.
The China Daily echoed that position on Sunday, reflecting what experts said was Beijing’s apparent desire not to immediately lock itself into a public confrontation with the US president-elect. The newspaper said there was “no need to over-interpret” the property tycoon’s “unusual action”.

We have the most ill prepared President Elect since before WWII.  This is dangerous in our complex world.  Obviously the current administration has assured China that there will be no change on America's one China policy.
