Taiwan’s reunification with China is inevitable, threatens Xi Jinping

Chinese President Xi Jinping on Thursday urged complete "reunification" of Taiwan with the motherland and said it is inevitable. He said, "The tide of history cannot be stopped. The complete reunification of the motherland must be realised, and it will certainly be realised." Notably, China ‌views democratically governed Taiwan as its own territory, despite Taipei's strong rejection of that claim.
