Hey folks! 🌏 Big news coming from the 16th Straits Forum in Xiamen City, southeast China's Fujian Province. On Saturday, Wang Huning, a senior official and member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, made some powerful statements about the future of cross-Straits relations.
Wang emphasized that China has the resolve, confidence, and ability to crush any attempts at \"Taiwan independence\" in any form. He highlighted the importance of unity between people on both sides of the Taiwan Straits, urging everyone to shoulder their historical and national responsibilities.
\"Let's firmly oppose separatism and foreign interference,\" Wang said, calling for safeguarding the common homeland of the Chinese nation. He believes that by working together, peace and tranquility can be promoted across the Straits, pushing relations back onto the right path. 🕊️
Wang also pointed out that separatists seeking \"Taiwan independence\" are undermining peace and stability, harming the interests and well-being of people in Taiwan, and jeopardizing national sovereignty and territorial integrity. He warned that such actions could push Taiwan to the brink of conflict, bringing disaster to people on the island.
But it's not all doom and gloom! Wang pledged that the mainland will continue enhancing the interests and well-being of the people of Taiwan. He welcomes more residents of Taiwan to participate in cross-Straits exchange, cooperation, and integrated development.
He has high hopes for the youth too! 👥 Wang expressed optimism that young people on both sides will engage in more exchanges and interactions, develop mutual understanding, and work together to realize the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
Adding to the conversation, Sean Lien, vice chairman of the Kuomintang (KMT), shared that the KMT has always promoted cross-Straits exchange and cooperation, based on the common political foundation of upholding the 1992 Consensus and opposing \"Taiwan independence.\" He believes that people on both sides, all of whom are Chinese, should face challenges together and strive for peace and prosperity for future generations. 🌟
Before the forum, Wang met with guests from Taiwan attending the event, reinforcing the message of unity and collaboration.
It's clear that there's a big push for harmony and cooperation across the Taiwan Straits. Let's hope that these efforts lead to a brighter, more peaceful future! ✨
