[Study Group Press]
In 2019, Xi Jinping's first public speech was a conversation between his family.
The commemoration meeting of the 40th anniversary of the publication of the "Message to Compatriots in Taiwan" began in the solemn national anthem.
Yesterday, the group briefly introduced the background and significance of the publication of the "Message to Compatriots in Taiwan". After listening to today's speech, the group felt that it was of far-reaching significance.
Xi Jinping's speech includes heartwarming words and ruthless words. Heartwarming home words are naturally spoken to the majority of Taiwanese compatriots, and harsh words are naturally directed at external interference and a very small number of "Taiwan independence" separatists.
The great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, our compatriots in Taiwan will definitely not be absent. The motherland must be unified and must be unified. Xi Jinping has carried out a beautiful vision of peaceful reunification for compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait: "Taiwan will always maintain peace, and the people will live and work in peace and contentment." "With a strong motherland as a supporter, Taiwanese compatriots will be stronger, more confident, safer and more dignified internationally."
This is also a sincere speech, enough to put it in mind: "The two sides of the Taiwan Strait should be connected to everything, improve smooth economic and trade cooperation, infrastructure connectivity, energy and resource interconnection, and common industry standards. We can take the lead in realizing water, electricity, ventilation and bridge access to Kinmen, Mazu and Fujian coastal areas."
Xi Jinping's speech is a programmatic speech guiding Taiwan's work in the new era, and comprehensively elaborating on our major policy propositions to promote the peaceful reunification of the motherland in the great journey of national rejuvenation. Very important! The
group excerpted some golden sentences for the members, and gave a sneak peek:
1. The historical and legal facts that Taiwan is part of China and the two sides of the Taiwan Strait belong to the same China are unchanged by no one or any force!
2. The motherland must be unified and must be unified. This is a historical conclusion on the development process of cross-strait relations for 70 years and an inevitable requirement for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation in the new era.
3. Compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait are family members, and affairs on both sides of the Taiwan Strait are family affairs of compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, and of course they should also be discussed by the family members.
4. The long-standing political differences between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait are the root cause that affects the steady and long-term development of cross-strait relations and cannot be passed on from generation to generation.
5. Unity is the general trend of history and the right way. "Taiwan independence" is a historical countercurrent and a dead end.
6. Chinese people don’t hit Chinese people. We are willing to strive for the prospect of peaceful reunification with the greatest sincerity and efforts, because achieving reunification in a peaceful way is most beneficial to compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait and the whole nation.
7. We do not promise to give up the use of force and retain the option to take all necessary measures. We target external interference and a very small number of "Taiwan independence" separatists and their separatist activities, and we are by no means targeted at our compatriots in Taiwan.
8. With a strong motherland as your support, the people's livelihood and well-being of Taiwan compatriots will be better, the room for development will be greater, the international community will be stronger, the confidence will be more secure, and the dignified.
9. The key to being intimate is to be close. No matter how many interference and obstacles are encountered, exchanges and cooperation between compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait cannot be stopped, cut off, or lost.
10. The affairs of Chinese people must be decided by Chinese people. The Taiwan issue is China's internal affairs, which concerns China's core interests and the national feelings of the Chinese people, and does not allow any external interference.

Comrades, compatriots, friends:
Today, we are here to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the publication of the "Message to Compatriots in Taiwan" of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress. On this New Year's occasion, on behalf of the people of the mainland of the motherland, I would like to extend my sincere greetings and sincere blessings to the compatriots in Taiwan! (Note: The words of blessing are the same as 40 years ago)
The two sides of the Taiwan Strait have been separated for 70 years. The emergence and evolution of the Taiwan issue are closely related to the fate of the Chinese nation since modern times. After the Opium War in 1840, Western powers invaded, and China fell into a tragic situation of internal and external troubles and broken mountains and rivers. Taiwan was even occupied by foreign races for half a century. In order to overcome foreign aggression, strive for national liberation, and achieve national reunification, the Chinese people have continued to fight with heroic struggles. Taiwan compatriots have made important contributions to this struggle.In 1945, the Chinese people, together with the people of all countries in the world, achieved the great victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War. Taiwan was restored and returned to the embrace of the motherland. Shortly afterwards, due to the continued Chinese civil war and the interference of external forces, the two sides of the Taiwan Strait fell into a special state of long-term political confrontation. (Note: This review of the history of the Taiwan issue, but from history, it can be seen that Taiwan has never been absent from the history of the Chinese nation fighting foreign aggression, fighting for national liberation, and realizing national reunification. It has always been an important force and made important contributions)
Since 1949, the Communist Party of China, the Chinese government, and the Chinese people have always regarded solving the Taiwan issue and realizing the complete reunification of the motherland as an unswerving historical task. We unite our compatriots in Taiwan to promote the situation in the Taiwan Strait from tense confrontation to easing and improving, and then embark on the path of peaceful development, and cross-strait relations have made continuous breakthroughs. (Note: Focus on introducing our efforts and achievements to achieve the complete reunification of the motherland in the 70 years of separation between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait. The following review is divided into 5 points)
--For the past 70 years, we have adapted to the common wishes of compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, promoted the breaking of the state of isolation between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait, achieved a comprehensive and direct two-way "three links", and opened up a situation of great exchanges between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait. Cross-strait exchanges and cooperation are becoming increasingly extensive, mutual exchanges are becoming increasingly close, and mutual hearts are becoming increasingly compatible. Taiwan compatriots have made significant contributions to the reform and opening up of the motherland, and have also shared the development opportunities of the mainland. (Note: Talking about the achievements of the "three links" between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait, which is the basis of the economy and the people's hearts)
--For 70 years, we have upheld the spirit of seeking common ground while reserving differences, and have promoted the two sides of the Taiwan Strait to reach the "1992 Consensus" on the basis of the one-China principle, and work together to seek national reunification, start cross-strait consultation and negotiation, promote inter-party exchanges between the cross-strait political parties, open up a path of peaceful development of cross-strait relations, realize historic meetings between the leaders of the two sides of the Taiwan Strait, and enable cross-strait political interaction to reach a new height. (Note: The political interaction between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait promotes unification is about political consensus)
--For the past 70 years, we have grasped the changes in the era of the development of cross-strait relations, put forward the policy propositions of peacefully resolving the Taiwan issue and the scientific concept of "one country, two systems", established the basic policy of "peaceful reunification, one country, two systems", and then formed the basic strategy of adhering to "one country, two systems" and promoting the reunification of the motherland, and answered the proposition of the times to promote the peaceful development of cross-strait relations in the new era and unite Taiwanese compatriots to jointly strive to achieve the great national rejuvenation and peaceful reunification of the motherland. (Note: "One Country, Two Systems" was proposed to solve the Taiwan issue, and its practice in Hong Kong and Macao has also proved its success. This is about institutional design)
--For 70 years, we have held high the banner of peace, development, cooperation and win-win, developed friendly cooperation with all countries on the basis of the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence, and consolidated the international community's pattern of adhering to the one-China principle. More and more countries and peoples understand and support China's cause of unification. (Note: The one-China principle is an international consensus, this is the international situation)
--For the past 70 years, we have always focused on the overall and long-term interests of the Chinese nation, firmly safeguarded national sovereignty and territorial integrity, united all Chinese people, and resolutely thwarted all kinds of attempts to create "two Chinas", "one China, one Taiwan" and "Taiwan independence", and achieved a series of major victories in the fight against "Taiwan independence" and anti-separatist struggles. (Note: The major victory of the anti-"Taiwan independence" and the anti-secession fight are achieved, which is the confidence of the struggle)
The development process of cross-strait relations proves that the historical and legal facts of Taiwan being part of China and the two sides of the strait belong to the same China are unchanged by anyone or any force! The compatriots on both sides of the strait are all Chinese, and the natural emotions and national identity of blood thicker than water and mutual help are unchanged by no one or any force! The situation in the Taiwan Strait is moving towards peace and stability and the development of cross-strait relations is unchanged by no one or any force! The trend of the situation in the Taiwan Strait is towards peace and stability and the development of cross-strait relations is unchanged by no one or any force! No one or any force can stop it! The historical trend of national strength, national rejuvenation, and cross-strait reunification is even more unstoppable by anyone or any force! (Note: Xi Jinping emphasized his tone here, and used 4 exclamations in succession, which is worth studying repeatedly. This is a correct understanding proved by history. In one sentence, cross-strait reunification is unstoppable)
Comrades, compatriots, friends!
Looking back on history is to enlighten today and show tomorrow. The motherland must be unified and must be unified.This is a historical conclusion on the development process of cross-strait relations for 70 years and an inevitable requirement for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation in the new era. The Chinese on both sides of the Taiwan Strait and the Chinese people at home and abroad should share the national justice, follow the historical trend, and jointly promote the peaceful development of cross-strait relations and promote the process of peaceful reunification of the motherland. (Note: Must be unified, and it is inevitable. This is a historical conclusion and an inevitable requirement. Remember these two important judgments)
First, work together to promote national rejuvenation and achieve the goal of peaceful reunification. National rejuvenation and national reunification are the general trend, the righteousness lies, and the will of the people. Apart from a river and a distance of the world, the two sides of the Taiwan Strait have not been completely unified so far, which is a trauma left by history to the Chinese nation. Chinese people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait should work together to seek national reunification and heal historical trauma. The vast majority of Taiwanese compatriots are part of the Chinese nation. We must be upright Chinese, seriously consider Taiwan’s status and role in national rejuvenation, and regard promoting the complete reunification of the country and jointly seeking the great rejuvenation of the nation as a supreme and glorious cause.
Taiwan's future lies in national reunification, and the welfare of Taiwan compatriots lies in national rejuvenation. The peaceful development of cross-strait relations is the correct way to maintain cross-strait peace, promote common development between the two sides of the strait, and benefit compatriots on both sides of the strait. The peaceful development of cross-strait relations must be jointly promoted by compatriots on both sides of the strait, maintained by compatriots on both sides of the strait, and shared by compatriots on both sides of the strait. The Chinese Dream is the common dream of compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait. Only when the national rejuvenation and the country are strong can the Chinese people on both sides live a prosperous and beautiful life. In the process of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, our compatriots in Taiwan will certainly not be absent. Compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait should work together to realize the Chinese dream, share the responsibility of national rejuvenation, and share the glory of national rejuvenation. The Taiwan issue arises due to national weakness and chaos, and will surely end with national rejuvenation! (Note: This part focuses on national rejuvenation. National reunification is the meaning of national rejuvenation, and the Taiwan issue will surely end with national rejuvenation. On the other hand, if the country is not unified, how about national rejuvenation? Taiwanese compatriots have not been absent in the struggle for more than a hundred years of modern history, and will not be absent in the great cause of national rejuvenation in the future)
Second, explore the "two systems" Taiwan plan and enrich the practice of peaceful reunification. "Peaceful reunification, one country, two systems" is the best way to achieve national reunification. It embodies the wisdom of Chinese that embraces all rivers and is tolerant. It not only fully considers the reality of Taiwan, but also helps Taiwan's long-term stability after unification.
system is different, it is not an obstacle to unity, nor is it an excuse for division. The proposal of "one country, two systems" was originally intended to take care of the actual situation in Taiwan and safeguard the interests and well-being of Taiwanese compatriots. The specific implementation form of "one country, two systems" in Taiwan will fully consider the actual situation in Taiwan, fully absorb opinions and suggestions from all walks of life on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, and fully take into account the interests and feelings of Taiwanese compatriots. On the premise of ensuring national sovereignty, security and development interests, after peaceful reunification, the social system and lifestyle of Taiwanese compatriots will be fully respected, and the private property, religious beliefs, and legitimate rights and interests of Taiwanese compatriots will be fully protected. (Note: Propose the Taiwan plan of "one country, two systems": 1. Consider the reality of Taiwan; 2. Absorb opinions from all walks of life on both sides of the Taiwan Strait; 3. Take care of the interests and feelings of Taiwan compatriots. Especially how to take care of interests, after the first peaceful reunification, private property, religious beliefs, and legitimate rights and interests will be fully protected, which is a signal of very kindness to Taiwan)
Compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait are family members, and the affairs of the two sides of the Taiwan Strait are family affairs of compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, and of course they should also be discussed by the family. Peaceful reunification is equal consultation and joint discussion. The long-standing political differences between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait are the root cause that affects the steady and long-term development of cross-strait relations and cannot be passed on from generation to generation. Both sides of the Taiwan Strait should be responsible for the nation and future generations, gather wisdom, use creativity, gather similarities and differences, strive to resolve political confrontation as soon as possible, achieve lasting peace in the Taiwan Strait, achieve national unity, and allow our descendants to live and grow in a common home of peace, tranquility, prosperity and dignity. (Note: If you discuss family affairs, you can speak so heartwarmingly; you cannot pass on them from generation to generation, and you can speak so firmly.The key is that the two sides of the Taiwan Strait should negotiate equally on the issue of peaceful reunification. The implication is that this generation should take active action, take more initiative, and benefit future generations)
Based on the one-China principle, there are no obstacles to the exchanges between any political party or group in Taiwan and us. Only by replacing confrontation with dialogue, replacing struggle with cooperation, and replacing zero-sum with win-win can cross-strait relations go steadily. We are willing to conduct dialogue and communication with all parties, groups and people in Taiwan on cross-strait political issues and related issues in promoting the peaceful reunification of the motherland, exchange opinions extensively, seek social consensus, and promote political negotiations. (Note: Show the open mind and attitude of the mainland, and make clear attitude towards promoting equal consultation)
We solemnly advocate that on the basis of adhering to the "1992 Consensus" and opposing "Taiwan independence", all political parties and sectors on both sides of the Taiwan Strait elect representatives to carry out extensive and in-depth democratic consultations on cross-strait relations and the future of the nation, and reach institutional arrangements for promoting the peaceful development of cross-strait relations. (Note: This is an important initiative, and the subject falls on reaching institutional arrangements. If reached, it will be a major breakthrough in resolving the Taiwan issue. Next, it depends on how Taiwan responds)
Third, adhere to the one-China principle and maintain the prospect of peaceful reunification. Although the two sides of the Taiwan Strait have not been completely unified, China's sovereignty and territory have never been divided, and the fact that the mainland and Taiwan belong to the same China has never changed. The one-China principle is the political foundation of cross-strait relations. By adhering to the one-China principle, cross-strait relations can be improved and developed, and Taiwanese compatriots can benefit. Deviating from the one-China principle will lead to tension and turmoil in cross-strait relations and damage the vital interests of Taiwan compatriots (note: repeatedly emphasizing the "one-China" principle is the bottom line, and even more a red line).
Unification is the general trend of history and the right way. "Taiwan independence" is a historical countercurrent and a dead end. The vast majority of Taiwanese compatriots have a glorious patriotic tradition and are our relatives. We adhere to the principle of placing hope on the people of Taiwan, and as always respect, care for, unite and rely on Taiwan compatriots, and do practical things, good things and solve problems for Taiwan compatriots. The vast majority of Taiwanese compatriots must recognize that "Taiwan independence" will only bring serious harm to Taiwan, firmly oppose "Taiwan independence" separatism, and jointly pursue the bright prospect of peaceful reunification. We are willing to create broad space for peaceful reunification, but we will never leave any space for all forms of "Taiwan independence" separatist activities. (Note: The target of the call in the first half of the year is the vast majority of Taiwanese compatriots, who are "kind and relatives", and unification is the "general trend" and "right way"; the second half is a harsh remark to the "Taiwan independence" forces, declaring them as "countercurrent" and "dead road")
Chinese people do not hit Chinese people (Note: vernacular! Big truth!). We are willing to strive for the prospect of peaceful reunification with the greatest sincerity and efforts, because achieving reunification in a peaceful way is most beneficial to compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait and the whole nation. We do not promise to give up the use of force and retain the option to take all necessary measures, targeting external interference and a very small number of "Taiwan independence" separatists and their separatist activities, and are by no means targeting our compatriots in Taiwan. Compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait should jointly seek peace, protect peace and share peace. (Note: Peaceful reunification is the most advantageous, but military reunification is one of the options to be retained, which is not only aimed at "Taiwan independence", but also mentions external forces, so the saying "Chinese people do not attack Chinese people" is even more intriguing)
Fourth, deepen cross-strait integration and development and consolidate the foundation of peaceful reunification. The blood of compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait is connected. Dear, please be kind to the Chinese, the Chinese should help the Chinese (note: Chinese people do not hit the Chinese, but Chinese people should also help the Chinese). We treat our compatriots equally and will continue to be the first to share the development opportunities of the mainland with our compatriots in Taiwan, provide equal treatment for our compatriots and Taiwanese enterprises, so that everyone can have a greater sense of gain. After peaceful reunification, Taiwan will maintain peace forever and the people will live and work in peace. With a strong motherland as your support, the people's livelihood and well-being of Taiwan compatriots will be better, the room for development will be greater, the international community will be stronger, the confidence will be more secure, and the dignified.(Note: After the second look forward to peaceful reunification, there will be a strong motherland to support Taiwan, and the future of Taiwan will be better. Here we use 6 "more" to describe it)
We must actively promote the institutionalization of cross-strait economic cooperation, build a cross-strait common market, increase momentum for development, add vitality to cooperation, and strengthen the economy of the Chinese nation. The two sides of the Taiwan Strait should be connected as much as possible to improve smooth economic and trade cooperation, infrastructure connectivity, energy and resource interconnection, and common industry standards. It can be the first to achieve water, electricity, ventilation and bridge access in Kinmen, Mazu and Fujian coastal areas. We must promote cross-strait cultural education, medical and health cooperation, social security and public resource sharing, and support the equalization, universalization and convenience of basic public services in neighboring or in equivalent conditions on both sides of the Taiwan Strait. (Note: Peaceful reunification is advancing, and we must start with the practical things that benefit the people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait: it is "connection")
Fifth, achieve spiritual harmony between compatriots and enhance the recognition of peaceful reunification. The soul of the country is transformed by culture and forged by literature. The compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait have the same roots and origins, and the same culture and species. Chinese culture is the root and belonging of the souls of compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait. The key to being intimate is to be intimate. No matter how many interference and obstacles are encountered, exchanges and cooperation between compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait cannot be stopped, cut off, or lost. (Note: The fifth point is about cultural identity, spiritual harmony, and the basis of peaceful reunification is the mutual understanding between the people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait)
Compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait should jointly inherit the excellent traditional Chinese culture and promote their creative transformation and innovative development. Compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait should exchange and learn from each other, be inclusive of dialogue, and be inclusive of themselves, put themselves in others, deepen mutual understanding, and enhance mutual trust and recognition. We must uphold compatriots' sentiment and empathy, educate future generations with a correct historical view, national view, and national view, and carry forward the great national spirit. There is no ununable knot between relatives. If you work hard for a long time, you will surely achieve spiritual harmony between compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait. (Note: Correct view of history, nation, and country, what we mean here is the education of future generations, and we must work hard for a long time)
Support and pursuit of national unity is the national justice and should be recognized by the whole nation. The great motherland will always be a strong backing for all patriotic and unification forces! We sincerely hope that all compatriots in Taiwan will cherish peace as much as their own eyes, pursue unity as they pursue happiness in life, and actively participate in the just cause of promoting the peaceful reunification of the motherland.
The hope of the country and the future of the nation are in the youth. Youths on both sides of the Taiwan Strait must shoulder heavy responsibilities, be united and friendly, and work together. We warmly welcome Taiwanese youth to come to the mainland of the motherland to pursue their dreams, build their dreams and realize them. Chinese people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait should unite sincerely, work together to seek welfare for their compatriots and create a future for the nation! (Note: Xi Jinping has always cared about the growth of young people, because they influence the future of the country and the nation, and the same is true for the great cause of reunification)
Comrades, compatriots, and friends! For a long time, compatriots in Hong Kong, Macao and overseas Chinese have cared for and supported the great cause of reunification of the motherland and made positive contributions. We hope that our compatriots in Hong Kong, Macao and overseas Chinese will continue to make new contributions to promoting the peaceful development of cross-strait relations and realizing the peaceful reunification of the motherland. (Note: Make hope for compatriots from Hong Kong and Macao and overseas Chinese)
Comrades, compatriots, friends! There is only one China in the world. Adhering to the one China principle is a recognized norm of international relations and is a general consensus of the international community. The international community widely understands and supports the Chinese people's opposition to "Taiwan independence" separatist activities and strives to complete the just cause of national reunification. The Chinese government appreciates and thanks for this. The Chinese have to decide what matters are. The Taiwan issue is China's internal affairs, which concerns China's core interests and the national feelings of the Chinese people, and does not allow any external interference. (Note: Emphasize international norms and consensus. China has never interfered in the internal affairs of other countries. Of course, our internal affairs do not allow other countries to interfere)
China's unification will not harm the legitimate interests of any country, including its economic interests in Taiwan, and will only bring more development opportunities to all countries, will only inject more positive energy into the prosperity and stability of the Asia-Pacific region and the world, and will only make greater contributions to the building of a community with a shared future for mankind, and to world peace and development and the cause of human progress.(Note: Explain the contribution of China's unification to the international community)
Comrades, compatriots, friends! History cannot be chosen, now can be grasped, and the future can be created! The new era is an era of great development and great achievements of the Chinese nation, and it is also an era of great development and great achievements of compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait. The road ahead cannot be smooth sailing, but as long as we work together and work together, we will be able to create a bright future for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and will be able to complete the great cause of national reunification! (Note: Grasp the present and create the future)
