On the subject of Taiwan, one of the most sensitive issues in relation to Washington and Beijing, last week it was learned that the main political strategist of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and spy chief for the Chinese regime, wang huningwas hired by Xi Jinping to draw up a new unification policy for Taiwanaccording to a party source quoted by a Japanese media.
According to an analysis published by Nikkei Asia, citing a CCP source, with Wang’s background in political theory, it is believed that Xi could announce a new Taiwan policy in the coming months. The measure would mean end of the era of “one country, two systems” defended by Beijing.
According to Nikkei Asiathe actions of the Communist Party in Hong Kong and the reaction of Taiwanese citizens turned the idea of ”one country, two systems” into a unsustainable political proposal. Now Xi and Wang will have to work together to strengthen relations between the two sides.
wang huningdespite not being well known outside of China, is widely regarded as the spy chief and chief propagandist for the CCP. He has been the China’s leading ideological theorist for three decades, and is now the 4th member of the seven-member Standing Committee, China’s most powerful body. He advised the previous leaders of China, jiang zemin Y Hu Jintaoand now advises Xi Jinping, being the author of many of its policies. In China it is called “guoshi” (国师: literally, “teacher of the nation”).
