The Chinese leader's message in San Francisco got the attention of U.S. officials because it was delivered at a meeting that was intended to reduce tensions.
The entire idea of reunification is that it is supported by the will of the people. I’m not speculating that it will be peaceful, I’m just pointing out what Xi said. You claiming that he’s lying is speculation.
Your speculating that I’m speculating is also speculation! You are the one whomst engages in frantic semantic antics!
Don’t be mad cuz you’re wrong. Xi Jinping stated that he has plans to peacefully reunify Taiwan and China. How you want to interpret that is up to you, but the media wants you to interpret “peaceful reunification” as “violent invasion.” If you want to believe that, that’s on you.
I think China is more than capable of reunification of Taiwan peacefully and invading would be a real dumb idea. Also, according to their own news, only 48.9% of the Taiwanese people support national Independence. So there’s definitely a possibility of China winning the people over.
Right, you’re saying that in hindsight.
When a tyrannous dictator preaches reunification as a descriptor when outlining their future plans the context changes a bit. Hope that helps :)

Sorry there was no meaning in your statement because I disagree.
I miss when opinions were just opinions.

Is that your opinion though? Feels like a straw man to me.

That’s pure speculation on your part. Xi specifically stated the goal is peaceful reunification.
If you believe that then I have a bridge I’d like to sell you. In fact it’s 2 for 1, but only if you buy by midnight!

Well London Bridge is in Lake Havasu, AZ now. Why can’t you get a bridge too?

Oh no. I criticized Xi Jinping! I must hate all Chinese people.
Just let me know if you want that bridge.
Uhm, isn’t a bridge the means of producing safe travel across a span? You should get the wall for owning means of production.
Well when all the direct quotes I read don’t match the history I have to speculate on what XI really means.
He said he wants to reunify Taiwan, he didn’t send me a PDF of his specific strategy.
You’re speculating that it will be peaceful with the same logic.
I still remember what was happening in Taiwan just a few days before COVID hit. Do you?

Your answer: no

Well, what was the answer?
The answer was “no”. It’s right there to see ;]

You claiming I’m speculating is also speculation. Take your semantic garbage and share it with someone who can respect your thoughts.

Did they say how? Peace would be preferred, but the Taiwanese need to be willing to cooperate.
After what’s happened in Hong Kong, why would Taiwan trust them?
Exactly my point
The Kuomintang party is willing to cooperate, while the Democratic party is not
