Thoughts?

Is this imperialism by China, a country which is supposed to be left-wing? Leftists are normally anti-imperialism. Wouldn’t it be better to let Taiwan democratically decide whether they want to be part of China or not?

        The People’s Republic of China and the Republic of China are two different governments that both claim sovereignty over mainland China and Taiwan.

        They both want to unite China, but only one of them is in the position to do it.

        Internal to Taiwan, there are parties that support reunification and support independence (opposing views), but Taiwan has not yet reneged on its claim of mainland China.
