"1982 U.S.-PRC Joint Communiqué/Six Assurances
As they negotiated establishment of diplomatic relations,
the U.S. and PRC governments agreed to set aside the
contentious issue of U.S. arms sales to Taiwan. They took
up that issue in the 1982 August 17 Communiqué, in which
the PRC states “a fundamental policy of striving for
peaceful reunification” with Taiwan, and the U.S.
government states it “understands and appreciates” that
policy. The U.S. government states in the 1982
communiqué that with those statements “in mind,” “it does
not seek to carry out a long-term policy of arms sales to
Taiwan,” and “intends gradually to reduce its sale of arms
to Taiwan, leading, over a period of time, to a final
resolution.” The U.S. government also declares “no
intention” of “pursuing a policy of ‘two Chinas,’” meaning
the PRC and the ROC, “or ‘one China, one Taiwan.’”"

- thworp 2y ago> "invade" = western propaganda > The proper word is "reunite", as it was agreed with the US So the US and the PRC had some milquetoast diplomatic correspondence which did not include Taiwan. If the PRC now occupies Taiwan against the will of its people and population, presumably under fire from the Taiwanese army, it' just a "reunification"?

- thworp 2y agoAn election result is not a single-issue poll and the current government supports the status quo anyway (just being fundamentally more open to dialogue). A clear majority of the opulation supports de-facto independence (the current status) or even formal independence [0].

- WhereIsTheTruth 2y ago"It's only a democracy if the results suits our interests" You are not being objective, a poll is not a vote In a vote, the registered population gets to vote using official ID In a poll, only 'god' knows who the respondents are
- WhereIsTheTruth 2y agoEven when presented with facts and argumentation, people still downvote, i guess there is no turning back No blood on my hands!
- thworp 2y agoBut no big party supports reunification with the current Chinese government, at best they have it as a long term goal. The election results do not show what you're claiming.
- sct202 2y agoVery misleading to link to the legislative election results, when the KMT party only won 33% of the Presidential vote. And on top of that the KMT's actions when in power are to preserve the status quo (effectively independent, make money, avoid war), even if their long term vision is peaceful unification with a democratic China.
