Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Xi: Taiwan question will be resolved as national rejuvenation becomes reality
Lead by Sun Yat-sen, the Revolution of 1911, also known as the Xinhai Revolution, occurred on Oct0ber 10, 1911. It marked the collapse of the Chinese monarchy that had lasted over 2,000 years. Both the People's Republic of China on the mainland and the Republic of China on the island of Taiwan honor the ideals of the revolution including nationalism, republicanism, modernization of China, and national unity. To commemorate the 110th anniversary of the revolution, China’s President Xi Jinping made important remarks on the Taiwan issue. He clarified and restated China’s stance on Taiwan in his own words. Here are some keynotes he delivered.
- The Taiwan question is purely an internal matter for China, one which brooks no external interference. This is determined by the general trend of Chinese history, but more importantly, it is the common will of all Chinese people.
- National reunification by peaceful means best serves the interests of the Chinese nation as a whole, including compatriots in Taiwan.
- Compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Straits should stand on the right side of history and join hands to achieve China's complete reunification and the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. Those who forget their heritage, betray their motherland, and seek to split the country will come to no good end.
