Chinese President Xi Jinping congratulated President-elect Donald Trump on his election win and says the U.S. and China must 'find a way to get along.' NBC News' Janis Mackey Frayer has more on the how Trump's win could impact the U.S.-China relationship.

China vowed “resolute countermeasures” on Sunday to a recently approved U.S. arms sale to Taiwan, and complained to the U.S. for arranging for the democratically governed island’s president to transit through U.S. territory. The U.S. State Department approved the potential sale, worth an estimated $385 million, of spare parts and support for F-16 jets and radars to Taiwan, the Pentagon said on Friday.

The sale sends “a wrong signal” to Taiwan independence forces and undermines U.S.-China relations, China’s foreign ministry said in a statement. The ministry said in a separate statement that it firmly opposes any official exchanges between the U.S. and Taiwan and “strongly condemns” the U.S. for arranging the transit.
