BEIJING, Aug. 10 (Xinhua) -- A Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson on Monday said China does not recognize the so-called "Arunachal Pradesh" illegally set up by India. Spokesperson Guo Jiakun made the remarks when asked to comment on the report that India issued on Aug. 7 the "standard names" of 27 locations in the so-called "Arunachal Pradesh." "Zangnan region is China's territory," Guo said, adding that India's move of attempting to replace names long used by China with its so-called "standard names" is illegal, null and void. Still less will it change the fact that Zangnan region belongs to China, he noted.
