Xi tells Taiwan opposition chief China will ‘never tolerate’ island’s independence

Chinese leader Xi Jinping's talks in Beijing with Cheng Li-wun, the head of Taiwan's main opposition Kuomintang, were the first such meeting in nearly a decade.

The Japan Times
Taiwan's main opposition leader will make a rare trip to China on Tuesday, weeks before U.S. President Donald Trump, with Beijing expected to use the visit to increase its influence over the democratic island.
Cheng Li-wun, who will become the first sitting chairperson of the Kuomintang (KMT) to travel to China in a decade, said she wants to meet Chinese President Xi Jinping to build cross-strait "peace."
Taiwanese officials and experts, however, say Xi sees an opportunity to reinforce Cheng's standing in the KMT and stymie further U.S. weapons sales to Taiwan.

While #KMT chairwoman #ChengLiwun can't wait to kowtow to #XiJinping in #Beijing, proving her deeper than deep-blue standing, #Taichung's mayor #LuShiowyen positions herself as a voice of moderation and sense.
This is quite a cunning way to ram a dagger into Cheng's back and leapfrog that crazy lady in the race for the next presidential candidacy of the KMT. If #Taiwan elects another female president, it certainly will be Lu and NOT Cheng. #politics https://www.taipeitimes.com/News/front/archives/2026/03/30/2003854694

台北時報
Looks as if #Taiwan's opposition party #TPP has completely lost the plot. While the #KMT goes deep blue with its new chairwoman #ChengLiwun and courts #China, the TPP follows like a lap dog - out of obvious spite against the ruling #DPP.
Such a disappointment, this could have been an important step to break the stronghold of just two parties if only the TPP had insisted on doing its own thing and following its own #politics.

TPP, KMT to announce joint policy platform on March 13: Huang - Focus Taiwan

The Taiwan People's Party (TPP) and Kuomintang (KMT) will announce a joint policy platform on March 13, as a prelude to a formal cooperation agreement ahead of Taiwan's November 2026 local elections, TPP Chairman Huang Kuo-chang (黃國昌) said Wednesday.

Focus Taiwan - CNA English News

Does #ChengLiwun realise that she is the chairwoman of the #KMT, the party of butcher #ChiangKaishek?
This tasteless demagogue managed to distort the events of February 28 1947 and the ensuing era of #WhiteTerror by turning the KMT into victims of some imaginary "green terror" by the #DPP. There really is no decency or respect for the deceased with this toxic woman.

KMT still is an abbreviation for "Kill Many Taiwanese", and the KMT is an invasive species in #Taiwan .
