China Forces Reunification Message To Claim Control Over Taiwan
Taiwan -China seems to giving out a message of unification with Taiwan, calling it a bare necessity. In a recent statement to the media, Chinese President XI Jinping has said that Beijing wouldn’t tolerate separatism and wishes to reunite with Taiwan, in a peaceful manner.
The declaration to the media is no less than a threat that it has to be a surrender of the Chinese terms. Taiwan continues to consider itself a sovereign and this has been well taken by many Western countries itself. However, China has forced the US, which has been Taiwan’s long-standing alliance, to accept the One China Policy. Under this agreement, China wishes to be the only one to have a government and every country it feels should be within its jurisdiction, will be its subsidiary.
