China's Reactive and Proactive TaiwanPolicies

China's 19th Party Congress has made significant changes to its Taiwan policy, from promoting reunification through political negotiations to opposing independence with the strongest determination and via all necessary means. While China's Taiwan policy in the economic and social fields may be proactive and has achieved significant progress, it has been frustrated in the political field by external and internal factors, such as Taiwan's rejection of China's proposal for reunification, US' obstruction and China's unfavourable internal situation.
