The Deop Dive is reporting that "In a speech commemorating the 130th anniversary of Mao Zedong’s birth, Chinese President Xi Jinping declared that Taiwan’s unification with mainland China is inevitable. The president vowed to prevent any attempts to split Taiwan from China” and hinted at a personal commitment to realizing the unification that eluded Mao during his lifetime."
