Hey there!
Did you know that sometimes countries can have disagreements, just like people do? Recently, there’s been some important news about the Chinese mainland and Taiwan.
On Wednesday, a spokesperson named Chen Binhua from the Chinese mainland talked about this. He said that if some people in Taiwan try to make Taiwan separate from China and become independent, the Chinese mainland will take strong action to keep the country together. 🚩
But don’t worry, because the Chinese mainland really wants to find a peaceful way to reunite with Taiwan. Chen said that “peaceful reunification” and the idea of “one country, two systems” are the main plans to solve what’s called the “Taiwan question.” This means they want both sides to come together and be part of the same country again, but with some special arrangements to respect differences.
So, what’s the “Taiwan question”? It’s about whether Taiwan should be part of China or be its own separate place. The Chinese mainland believes that Taiwan is part of China, and they hope to reunite peacefully.
However, things are a bit tricky right now. Some people in Taiwan, especially from a group called the Democratic Progressive Party (or DPP for short), are working with others outside of Taiwan and China to try to make Taiwan independent. Chen said that this makes things complicated and serious.
He also said that the Chinese mainland has the determination and ability to stop any attempts to make Taiwan independent. They want to protect their country’s unity and territory.
In the end, Chen emphasized that they will do their very best and be sincere in trying to reunify peacefully. They believe this is the best for all the Chinese people on both sides of the Taiwan Straits.
Pretty interesting, right? It’s like when you have a disagreement with a friend but you want to find a way to make up and be friends again. Let’s hope they can find a peaceful solution! 😊
