Taiwan's status of Chinese territory has never changed and it will never be allowed.
She said that in the face of the legal and reality of cross -strait relations, the so -called "cross -strait do not belong to each other" and other fallacy will only be swept into the historical garbage dumps.
Former Taiwan President Ma Ying -jeou and the current Tsai Ing -wen visited mainland China and the United States last week, respectively.Ma Ying -jeou publicly announced that the two sides of the strait belonged to the same China, while Tsai Ing -wen insisted that it was an outdated discussion in the 1970s, reiterating that the cross -strait was not affiliated with each other.
Lai Qingde believes that Ma Cai's schedule shows different meanings and values of Taiwan. Ma Ying -jeou returns the framework of the "one China" principle in the past, while Tsai Ing -wen moves towards the international road on the road of democracy.

Tsai Ing -wen commented on Lai Qingde's Facebook, saying that adhering to Taiwan's freedom and democracy, showing Taiwan's determination to go to the world is a consistent goal, and it is also the common expectations of the people of Taiwan.
