Only if Taiwan accepts One China Principle which says both sides are the same country and PRC is the only legal government

Never trust authoritarian dictators, especially ones who have been threatening you constantly.
if this actually does turn out to be some normalisation then good, but I fear China just wants to increase influence more and more for an eventual takeover, either politically, economically or militarily.

A reminder that only 13% of Taiwan’s people actually want reunification.

China is a wholly owned subsidiary of Taiwan.

This is only mildly tangential to the news, but has anyone noticed from the picture how tall Chen Li-Wun is? Xi Jinping is one of the tallest Chinese leaders in recent history at 5’11 or 6’, and yet Chen Li-Wun is standing as tall as him while wearing flats. Compared to the average Taiwanese, she’s got some downright Amazonian proportions.

Taiwan will inevitably join China peacefully in the future.
The Taiwanese are living in a propaganda bubble. But those who stay in the West for some time actually realise how chaotic and unsafe it is, and how it’s going rapidly downhill with all these uncontrolled masses of immigrants.
And those who spend time on Redbook (20% of Taiwanese and growing) realise how stable, safe and advanced China is.
Which is why the ruling Taiwanese party wants to ban it.
Chinese softpower has grown by 100-fold in the past 20 years. They’re now making banger after banger in electronics, video games, animes, infrastructure porn, robotics, open source AI etc… and it’s still growing exponentially.
In a few decades it will be cool to be Chinese, and cringe to be the West’s bargaining chip

I’d love for China to say „Whilst historically and Culturally „Taiwan“ should be part of China, we think they will join eventually through friendship and there will never be a need to invade. We have learnt that the cost of war, even if victorious, is too high, from watching all the mistakes America makes around the world. We choose the path of friendship and will recognise Taiwan as an independent country, and hopefully future ally and friend. The door will always be open to reunification, but it is not worth the costs of Chinese lives and money. Education, healthcare and wealth for all remains our goal… etc.“
It would be such a tragedy if China got addicted to constant use of military actions into multiple countries every year like Russia/USSR/USA seem to have.

Peaceful reunification went out the door with the botched effort with Hong Kong.
The CCP needed to, at least, maintain the illusion of maintaining liberties reunifying regions. To giving them special treatment from the rest of China like freedom of press and religion. But they failed spectacularly.
It’s like Ukraine unifying with Russia went out the door when Russia invaded, again. Bridges were not burned, they were blown up.
