China-Taiwan tensions: Xi Jinping says nobody can stop 'family reunion' with Taiwan | Oneindia
Chinese President Xi Jinping conveyed to former Taiwan President Ma Ying-jeou on Wednesday that external interference would not impede the "family reunion" between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait.
He emphasised that all issues are open for discussion.
Since the Republic of China government retreated to Taiwan in 1949 following a civil war loss to Mao Zedong's communists, no sitting Taiwanese leader has visited China.
However, Ma, who served as president from 2008 to 2016, broke this pattern last year, marking the first visit by a former Taiwanese leader to China.
This visit, Ma's second, occurs amid heightened military tensions in the region.

In a devastating attack on Monday evening in Zhuhai, southern China, a car ploughed into a crowd of pedestrians, leaving at least 35 dead and over 40 injured. The attack occurred at the Zhuhai Sports Centre, where people were exercising on the internal roads when a 62-year-old driver, identified as Fan, drove his SUV through the gate and into the crowd.
Footage from the scene, which has surfaced online, shows horrifying images of victims lying motionless on the running track, while firefighters administer CPR to some of the injured.

Taiwan detected 37 Chinese military aircraft, including fighter jets and drones, near its airspace, with 35 crossing the median line of the Taiwan Strait.
