China: Xi Jinping makes most direct threat so far to annex Taiwan in New Year's speech | Oneindia

In his New Year's speech on Sunday, Chinese President Xi Jinping asserted that China's "reunification" with Taiwan is unavoidable, adopting a more assertive stance compared to the previous year.

This statement comes ahead of the general elections in Taiwan, a region claimed by Beijing as its "sacred territory." While Xi Jinping did not explicitly reference military threats in his address, it is noteworthy that China has not ruled out the potential use of force to assert control over Taiwan.
