China's Xi says nobody can stop 'family reunion' with Taiwan
==========
Chinese President Xi Jinping told former Taiwan President Ma Ying-jeou that outside interference could not stop the 'family reunion' between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait. Since the defeated Republic of China government fled to Taiwan in 1949, no serving Taiwanese leader has visited China. Ma, president from 2008 to 2016, last year became the first former Taiwanese leader to visit China and is now on his second trip to the country. Xi said that people on both sides of the strait are Chinese and that external interference cannot stop the historical trend of reunion of the country and family. China considers Taiwan its own territory and has ramped up military and political pressure to assert those claims, while Tsai and her government reject China's territorial claims and say only the island's people can decide their future.
