The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China fully affirmed the new progress made in the work on Taiwan in the past five years and the 10 years in the new era. On the basis of innovation, it expounds the party's stance and policy to unswervingly promote the great cause of national reunification in the new era, which reflects our party's consistent firmness to the policies of Taiwan University and the pioneering nature of advancing with the times. The Taiwan-related discussion in the report is highly refined, with rich spiritual connotations. It has a strong leading force in promoting the great cause of national reunification in the new era, and has important guiding significance and far-reaching historical significance for doing a good job of Taiwan in the new era.

One is to lead new ideas. The report of the 20th National Congress of pointed out when summarizing the work practice on Taiwan since the new era, "We put forward an overall strategy for solving the Taiwan issue in the new era, promote cross-strait exchanges and cooperation, resolutely oppose the separatist act of 'Taiwan independence', resolutely oppose the interference of external forces, and firmly Grasp the dominance and initiative in cross-Strait relations." Since the 18th National Congress, General Secretary Xi Jinping has stood at the strategic height of the overall development of the party and the country and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, keenly insight into the domestic and international situation and new changes in the situation across the Taiwan Strait, and profoundly summed up our party's The development process and experience enlightenment of the theory and practice of Taiwan work, published a series of important expositions on Taiwan work, put forward a series of new concepts, new ideas, new strategies, and formed the party's overall strategy for solving the Taiwan issue in the new era. The Party's overall strategy for solving the Taiwan issue in the new era is an important part of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era. It scientifically answers the era proposition of realizing complete reunification of the motherland in the great journey of national rejuvenation. Practical significance. Different from the previous political reports of the party, the report to the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China emphasized in the work on Taiwan, "persistently implement the party's overall strategy for solving the Taiwan issue in the new era, and unswervingly promote the great cause of the reunification of the motherland." This important discussion establishes that the party's overall strategy for solving the Taiwan issue in the new era is the fundamental follow-up and action plan for the new era's work on Taiwan.

II is a new way of thinking. The Taiwan-related content of the 20th National Congress report contains a new policy thinking of precisely opposing "independence" and promoting reunification. The report pointed out, "We have always respected, cared for, and benefited Taiwan compatriots, and continued to be committed to promoting cross-strait economic and cultural exchanges and cooperation, promoting cross-strait joint promotion of Chinese culture, and promoting cross-strait compatriots' hearts and minds." This is still the most vivid expression of the love and brotherhood of compatriots, and it is in line with the concept of "cross-strait one family" written in the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. After the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the mainland has successively formulated and issued "31 measures", "26 measures", "11 measures", "22 measures for agriculture and forestry" and other policies and measures to benefit Taiwan and the people, and continue to implement them in detail and continue to expand Deepen cross-strait economic and cultural exchanges and cooperation, and continuously promote the peaceful and integrated development of cross-strait relations. The history of the development of cross-strait relations has repeatedly proved that the peaceful development and integrated development of cross-strait relations are an important way to peaceful reunification, and a clear road to benefit compatriots on both sides of the strait. Even though the situation in the Taiwan Strait is changing, the mainland's understanding that "compatriots on both sides of the strait are brothers of flesh and blood with a shared destiny, and a family whose blood is thicker than water" has never changed. The is the main axis of the mainland's policy towards Taiwan. At the same time, in the face of the secessionist activities of the "Taiwan independence" forces and the serious provocations by external forces interfering in Taiwan affairs, we must resolutely carry out major struggles against separatism and interference. The process of China's national reunification cannot be smooth. "Taiwan independence" is an obstacle that must be removed in the process of peaceful reunification, and interference by external forces is a prominent obstacle to advancing China's reunification process. We must persist in being brave and good at fighting. The report makes it clear, "We adhere to the prospect of peaceful reunification with the greatest sincerity and our best efforts, but we will never promise to give up the use of force and reserve the option of taking all necessary measures, which is aimed at the interference of external forces and the very few "Taiwan independence" separatists. Its separatist activities are by no means aimed at the vast number of Taiwan compatriots.” This demonstrates the precise anti-independence thinking of the mainland's policy toward Taiwan.

is a new direction leading. The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China pointed out, "From now on, the central task of the Communist Party of China is to unite and lead the people of all ethnic groups in the country to build a powerful modern socialist country in an all-round way, realize the goal of the second century of struggle, and comprehensively promote China with Chinese-style modernization. The great renaissance of the nation". This is the new historical orientation of China's great cause of reunification. Since the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, in the face of the separatist activities of the "Taiwan independence" forces and the interference of external forces in TaiwanWe have resolutely carried out major struggles against separatism and interference, demonstrating our strong determination and capability to safeguard national sovereignty and territorial integrity and oppose "Taiwan independence". The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China emphasized that solving the Taiwan issue and realizing the complete reunification of the motherland is the unswerving historical task of the Party, the common aspiration of all Chinese sons and daughters, and an inevitable requirement for realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. The historical trend of national strength, national rejuvenation, and cross-strait reunification cannot be stopped by anyone or any force. No one should underestimate the strong determination, firm will, and strong ability of the Chinese people to defend national sovereignty and territorial integrity! The report of the 20th National Congress pointed out that "the historical wheels of national reunification and national rejuvenation are rolling forward, and the complete reunification of the motherland must be realized, and also It will definitely be realized!" This is the strongest voice in the new era based on the correct judgment of advancing the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation on a new journey and the great cause of China's reunification in a new historical position.
