Xi Jinping Urges US to Oppose Taiwan Independence Amid Historical Context
Chinese President Xi Jinping told US President Donald Trump that the US should oppose Taiwan independence, reaffirming China's stance on reunification. Taiwan, officially the Republic of China, has a complex history involving Qing dynasty rule, Japanese colonization, and the Chinese civil war. While Beijing claims Taiwan as part of China and has proposed a 'one country, two systems' model, Taiwan maintains de facto independence with international unofficial ties. The US has long maintained a policy of strategic ambiguity regarding Taiwan's status.
