    https://www.reuters.com/article/…

    • interesting. current president is opposed to reunification. and after how well they did on preventing the pandemic, they have the most citizens' support.pango
    • The majority in Taiwan have opposed unification way before this pandemicGnash
    • true. the majority has been for a long time. but pro-unification side has been on the rise for the last 2 decades. last election one of the front runningpango
    • presidential candidate was pro china.pango
    • cpc is putting on more pressure because anti unification side is getting even more support.pango
    • Yes the KMT (conservative party) are the more pro China side in Taiwan as I understand it. China really didn't want the current leader to be reelected.yuekit
    • China wants Taiwan like Rassa wants Ukraine, weird to see how they follow the same tactics like rassa does with that poor country.sted
    • Chinese Taipei you mean!_niko
    • During the election there was even some rumors that the KMT candidate, a "right wing populist" was actually a trojan horse for China.yuekit
    • And this time a year ago, he was probably the favorite to win. But the Hong Kong protests changed the entire political landscape.yuekit
    • niko. if you want to be technical. it's R.O.C or even China Taipeipango
