Taiwanese Youth and KMT Show Interest in Cross-Straits Exchanges with Mainland China
More than 5,000 attendees from Taiwan, including young people, participated in the 15th Straits Forum, the biggest in-person people-to-people exchange event across the Taiwan Straits since the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite the cross-Straits tensions caused by the secessionist Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) and collusion between the Taiwan authorities and Washington, Taiwan youth are attracted by the market, potential, and culture of the Chinese mainland and are confident in the recovery of cross-Straits exchanges. The exchange and integration between the two sides of the Straits represent the will of the people and are unstoppable.
