Taiwanese Opposition Leader Visits China for First Time in a Decade
Cheng, chair of Taiwan’s Kuomintang party, has arrived in Shanghai, emphasizing the need to prevent conflict with China.
Cheng’s six-day visit, at the invitation of Chinese President Xi Jinping, includes stops in Shanghai, Nanjing, and Beijing. The Kuomintang party advocates for the ‘One China’ policy, which aligns with China’s stance that views Taiwan as a breakaway province. The visit occurs amid ongoing tensions, as China does not rule out the use of military force to achieve reunification.
