Tsai Ing-wen, Taiwan President has stated that there is “no room for compromise” over the self-ruled island’s sovereignty even\u00a0though she is willing to work with China to find \u201cmutually acceptable ways\u201d to maintain peace across the Taiwan Strait.<\/p>\n

Taiwan, home to 23 million people, lies fewer than 110 miles (177 kilometers) off the coast of China. For more than 70 years the two sides have been governed separately, but that hasn\u2019t stopped China\u2019s ruling Communist Party from claiming the island as its own \u2013 despite having never controlled it.<\/p>\n

Chinese leader Xi Jinping has said that \u201creunification\u201d between China and Taiwan is inevitable and refused to rule out the use of force \u2013 but in her speech Monday, Tsai urged Chinese leaders not to go down that path.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe consensus of the Taiwanese people \u2026 is to defend our sovereignty and our free and democratic way of life. There is no room for compromise on this,\u201d Tsai said in a speech marking Taiwan\u2019s National Day on Monday, October 10, delivered as tensions between Taipei and Beijing simmer at the highest point in recent decades.<\/p>\n

\u201cI call on the Beijing<\/a> authorities that resorting to war must not be the option for cross-strait relations,\u201d Tsai said. \u201cOnly by respecting Taiwanese people\u2019s insistence on sovereignty, freedom and democracy can we resume positive interactions across the Taiwan Strait.\u201d<\/p>\n

Following the visit of US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to Taiwan in early August, China stepped up military pressure tactics on the island, sending fighter jets across the median line of the Taiwan Strait, the body of water separating Taiwan and China.<\/p>\n

For decades, the median line had served as an informal demarcation line between the two countries<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Last week, Taiwan\u2019s Defense Minister warned that Chinese fighter jets or drones that intrude into Taiwan\u2019s territorial airspace \u2013 defined as 12 nautical miles (22.2 kilometers) from the island\u2019s shores \u2013 will be regarded as a \u201cfirst strike,\u201d as Taipei seeks to step-up its defenses in response to Beijing\u2019s military pressure.<\/p>\n

Tsai said in her speech that Taiwan is an \u201cimportant symbol\u201d of democracy in the world and its people are determined to defend the island.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe international community is very clear that defending Taiwan\u2019s security equals defending regional stability and democratic values. If Taiwan\u2019s democratic freedoms are destroyed, it will be a major setback for democracies around the world,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
