Xi Jinping Reiterates Call for Taiwan's Reunification with China

Chinese President Xi Jinping has once again reiterated Taiwan's accession to China. Speaking at an event in Beijing's Great Hall of the People on Thursday, he said that Taiwan is destined to complete "full reunification" with China. He called it a process of history that no one can stop. This time, he made no mention of the use of force in his statement about Taiwan and called for peaceful reunification. Xi Jinping said, "There must be complete reunification of the motherland and it will definitely happen." He called the issue of Taiwan an unwavering historical mission of the Communist Party of China. He also appealed to the people of Taiwan to unite and oppose the forces demanding Taiwan's independence. In fact, China considers democratically governed Taiwan to be its part and has been demanding its reunification for a long time. China has repeatedly referred to the one-country-two-systems model. However, no major political party in Taiwan has supported this Chinese revolutionary proposal.
