China News Agency, Daqing, Heilongjiang, July 22 (Reporter Li Hanxue) Zhu Weidong, deputy director of the Institute of Taiwan Studies of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, proposed at the Cross-Strait Integrated Development Forum on the 22nd that integrated development is an important part of the mainland's strategy for peaceful reunification in the new era and will be firm. Push forward without moving.

  On the same day, the 4th Cross-Strait Integrated Development Forum, co-sponsored by the All-China Taiwan Compatriots Association, the Taiwan Institute of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, Minnan Normal University, and the Taiwan Institute of Xiamen University, was held in Daqing.

In his opening speech, Zhu Weidong pointed out that actively promoting the peaceful development and integration of cross-strait relations and advancing the grand cause of the motherland's reunification are the theme and mission of the motherland's work on Taiwan at present and in the future.

  He said that the main obstacle to integration and development now lies in the resistance and exclusion of the Taiwan authorities.

At present, due to the unilateral destruction of the political foundation of the development of cross-strait relations by the DPP authorities and their all-out "relying on the United States to resist China" and "refusing to seek independence", the US-Taiwan collusion to create cross-strait confrontation has gradually escalated, making cross-strait peaceful development facing risks. Significant rise, and there are many obstacles to the development of cross-strait integration.

But in the long run, people-to-people exchanges and cross-strait exchanges and cooperation in various fields and levels have "huge potential, surging momentum, and vast space."

  Zhu Weidong said that integration and development are an important part of the mainland's strategy for peaceful reunification in the new era and will unswervingly push it forward.

  "From the Communiqué of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China in recent years, especially the series of important speeches by the top leaders of China, promoting the integration and development of cross-strait relations is by no means a stopgap measure." Zhu Weidong said that in the future, the mainland will not only implement the policies and measures that have been introduced to benefit Taiwan. In detail, we must base ourselves on the new situation of the development of cross-strait relations and the new development stage of the mainland, meet the actual needs of Taiwanese compatriots and Taiwanese enterprises, and have the courage to explore new paths for cross-strait integration and development.

  Zhu Weidong pointed out that the direction of cross-strait integration and development is to promote the construction of relevant systems and mechanisms and jointly build a community of shared future for both sides of the strait.

Promoting the institutionalization of the peaceful and integrated development of cross-strait relations is a major practical issue that cannot be avoided. It is not only an inevitable product of the peaceful development of cross-strait relations, but also a legal system guarantee to ensure the stability and long-term development of cross-strait relations.

  He said, "Unfortunately, due to the influence of many factors, especially the resistance and rejection of the Taiwan authorities, the institutionalization and legalization of cross-strait relations is far behind the vigorous practice of cross-strait relations and the integration of compatriots on both sides of the strait. The expectation of development. This is also the direction we will strive for in the next step." (End)
