No one can stop China’s ’national reunification’ with Taiwan, says Xi Jinping in New Year speech

Live Mint  

In his New Year's speech on Tuesday, Chinese President Xi Jinping declared that no one can stop China's "reunification" with Taiwan, delivering a stern warning to what Beijing sees as pro-independence forces both on the island and internationally. No one can sever our family bonds, and no one can stop the historical trend of national reunification,” Xi said in a speech televised on China's state broadcaster CCTV. In his New Year's speech last year, Xi said China's "reunification" with Taiwan is inevitable, and that people on both sides "should be bound by a common sense of purpose and share in the glory of the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation." Tensions have remained high throughout the year in the sensitive Taiwan Strait, especially after Lai Ching-te, deemed a "separatist" by Beijing, became the island's latest president in May, as reported by Reuters.
