Chinese, Taiwanese will unite, Xi tells Taiwan opposition leader

[ety]

Chinese reunification demands should include:

Beijing absorbs Taiwan debt
Taiwan no longer requires a military budget
Taiwan stays a democracy with local government and status similar to HK. apart from Chinese mainland/two regions
Taiwan under Beijing central government, similar to HK
Taiwan has 3x amount of representation in CPC than normal levels of other regions.
Taiwan stays a capitalistic country
Taiwan remains a low tax zone
Taiwan has Chinese social programs
Taiwanese not required to join military
If successful, in 30 years, HK, Macao get Taiwan special status. Taiwan Status is to grow, not be eliminated.

If Taiwan does not meet demands from China, Taiwan could be invaded when China wants with no benefits to Taiwan.

Aside from military defense and foreign affairs that have to be under Beijing control, things such as their political system and way of life will be negotiable. It will be under one country two systems similar to HK in ideal case.

Military reunification is much cheaper choice comparing the requirements in your list

China's Xi says Taiwan 'reunification' must happen as history cannot be stopped​

The tide of history cannot be stopped, Chinese President Xi Jinping said on Thursday, while urging peaceful “reunification” with Taiwan and making no mention of using force, though he still drew a firm rebuff from Taipei.

China views democratically-governed ‌Taiwan as its own territory, despite Taipei’s strong rejection of that claim, and has repeatedly offered a “one country, two systems” model of autonomy not supported by any major Taiwanese political party.

Resolving the Taiwan question is an “unwavering historical mission” of China’s Communist Party, Xi said in a speech in Beijing’s Great Hall of the People.

“The tide of history cannot be stopped,” Xi added. “The complete reunification of the motherland must be realised, and it will certainly be realised.”

Taiwan’s government dismissed the remarks.

Its Mainland Affairs Council said neither the government nor Taiwan’s people could accept “one country, two systems,” which would ultimately mean submitting to the Communist Party’s authoritarian rule.

“As for the wording on Taiwan ⁠unification, it isn’t much different from the past,” council spokesperson Liang Wen-chieh told reporters.

Xi’s comments came in a speech on the 160th birthday of revolutionary hero Sun Yat-sen, who helped lead a 1911 revolt that ended centuries of rule by emperors and empresses and ushered in the Republic of China.

Xi said China adheres to “peaceful reunification and the policy of ‘one country, two systems’” and is willing to talk to Taiwan while upholding the “one-China principle”, or Beijing’s position that both sides of the Taiwan Strait are one country.


All Chinese, including those in Taiwan, should join hands to jointly oppose Taiwan independence “separatist” forces and strive for peaceful development of cross-Strait ties, Xi added.

Despite Xi not mentioning the use of force, which China has never renounced for Taiwan, its military operates around the island on a daily basis and is extending its reach further into the Pacific.

Taiwan’s defence ministry said it had detected 29 Chinese military aircraft, including J-16 fighter jets and drones, carrying out a “joint combat readiness patrol” around Taiwan in conjunction with Chinese warships, starting on Thursday.

Xi’s ⁠speech comes a week ahead of the APEC summit in China’s southern tech hub of Shenzhen, where he is due to again meet US President Donald Trump, and also a little more than two weeks before important local elections in Taiwan.

Last month, Taiwan called on its people to steer clear of any of China’s events to mark the Sun anniversary, saying China had a distorted view of him and his legacy.

Beijing calls Sun a great national hero and patriot, as well as the forerunner of the 1949 communist revolution that forced the defeated Republic of China government to flee to Taiwan, ⁠where it remains to this day.


Xi said Sun was a great national hero, a great patriot and a “great pioneer of China’s democratic revolution”.

“Mr Sun Yat-sen consistently upheld the unity of the country and the solidarity of the nation, and he firmly opposed all words and actions that split the country or the nation,” he added.

In Taiwan, Sun is officially considered the “father of the ⁠nation” and his portrait hangs in the presidential office, though his political philosophy, “Three Principles of the People”, is no longer a required text for schoolchildren.

While Taiwan President Lai Ching-te and his ruling Democratic Progressive Party champion Taiwan’s separate identity from China, they have been striking a tougher tone with Beijing on the role of the Republic of China.

Taiwan has ⁠been particularly upset by Beijing’s effort to claim credit for the victory in World War Two, saying it was the Republic of China government that fought alongside the allies, as the People’s Republic of China did not exist at the time.

China says Lai is a “separatist” and has refused to speak with him. Lai says only Taiwan’s people can decide their future.

I do think the war in May 2025 has set things in motion for the rise of China with plenty of proof.
What were easily labelled “cheap chinese fake toys” shocked the world and now u see the respect for China the gentle giant.
The message is clear: Do not mess with China…..

Big opinions change on Taiwan most recently. Now the report poll says 22.4% Taiwanese will accept China mainland proposed one country two systems modeled after HK, and 60% Taiwanese are willing to discuss reunification with mainland. Maybe a turning point has ben crossed now.

Even many green DPP members are furious how the white american ruling-class along with their domestic pets are treating their own AI messiah like Jensen Huang.

No matter how much yourself proclaim to be Taiwanese not Chinese, it still won't buy you a safe ticket from their Sinophobia society.

Only China is the true safe haven for all Chinese ethnic groups including other East Asians.
