In recent years, with the deepening of the collusion between Taiwan independence forces and external anti-China forces, China's anti-Taiwan independence struggle has become more and more intense.
In fact, all three of these situations are mentioned in China's "Anti-Secession Law", and Foreign Minister Wang Yi publicly emphasized that peaceful reunification is not without a timetable, and it is obvious that they are addressed to Taiwan independence forces, external anti-China forces, and the Taiwan people.

Warning to Taiwan independence forces
The Anti-Secession Law, which came into effect in March 2005, sets out a clear bottom line on the Taiwan issue, and these three serious situations are "the fact that separatist forces have caused Taiwan to separate from China in any name or by any means", "the occurrence of major incidents that will lead to Taiwan's separation from China", and "the complete loss of the possibility of peaceful reunification".
A careful analysis shows that these three serious situations are aimed at the Taiwan independence forces, the anti-China forces in the outside world, and the Taiwan people.

We have to admit that since the 1990s, the Taiwan independence forces have become more and more powerful in Taiwan's political ecology, from Lee Teng-hui and Chen Shui-bian at the beginning, to Tsai Ing-wen and Lai Ching-te, who will come to power on 20 May, the Taiwan independence forces have become more and more emboldened, that is, they not only talk about Taiwan independence in words, but also openly promote the process of Taiwan independence in the international community, which the Chinese Government absolutely cannot tolerate.
"The fact that the separatist forces have caused the separation of Taiwan from China in any name and in any way" is obviously a way for the Taiwan independence forces to pull back from the precipice, and once their goal of Taiwan independence is achieved, the PLA will be reunified by force.

It may be that some Taiwan independence elements are still dreaming of "relying on foreign countries to gain self-respect," believing that once the mainland attacks Taiwan, the Americans will rescue them as soon as possible. But don't forget that the Russian-Ukrainian war has been fought for more than two years, and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has repeatedly prayed for the United States and Europe to support the much-needed weapons and ammunition as soon as possible, but the other side is just talking to himself.
On the other hand, Taiwan is just an isolated island in southeast China surrounded by the sea, with no strategic depth to speak of, and its military defense value is not as good as that of Ukraine. When the time comes, there is a high probability that the United States will symbolically send some arms, and then it will leave it alone and let the Taiwan independence elements mess in the wind.
Warn against external anti-China forces
"The occurrence of a major incident that will lead to the separation of Taiwan from China" is obviously aimed at external anti-China forces, and to put it more clearly, it is addressed to the Americans. This is because the only external force that has the ability and intention to split Taiwan is the United States.
Today, the Taiwan issue has become a starting point for some politicians in the US Congress to gain political assets and other ulterior motives. In the US political arena, "anti-China" is basically political correctness. It is inconceivable that engaging in an anti-China trade war will give political points, and that supporting Taiwan independence, Tibet independence, and other "anti-China forces" in carrying out separatist movements will also give them extra political points.

In addition, the United States regards Taiwan as a "big wrongdoer" in dumping second- and third-rate arms and ammunition. Prior to this, the United States has repeatedly sold obsolete arms of inferior quality and high price to Taiwan, including: M60 and M48 tanks, Perry-class and Knox-class frigates, F-16A/B fighter jets, and so on.
Not long ago, the United States put forward the latest arms purchase plan for the Taiwan military to update its arms, including exporting the M1A2T main battle tank and upgrading the existing F-16A/B to the latest F-16V. All this is to make money for defense contractors such as Lockheed Martin and Raytheon in the United States, but at the expense of the "hard-earned money" of the Taiwanese people.

In fact, China has warned the United States on more than one occasion through diplomatic and other channels that China's will to safeguard sovereignty and reunification is unshakable. However, on the one hand, the successive US administrations have recognized the one-China principle and the three Sino-US joint communiques, but they have also engaged in anti-China and separatist activities.
In this regard, China can only use hard power to fight hard. It has really reached the point of military struggle, and the US military is not completely sure that it will be able to win in Taiwan, and this can be seen from the results of Taiwan's "Han Kuang" series of exercises in recent years and the fiasco results of the US military's simulated military exercises in the western Pacific.
I would like to tell the people of Taiwan
The third scenario, that is, "the possibility of peaceful reunification is completely lost," should be addressed to the people of Taiwan. Peaceful reunification, which was put forward by the Chinese leader more than 40 years ago, recognizes the social and economic system and way of life that the people of Taiwan have also formed. In short, peaceful reunification embodies the tolerant attitude of the Chinese leadership toward the Taiwan people.
Of course, we also hope that this tolerant attitude will be echoed by the people of Taiwan. However, the question now is whether the Taiwan independence forces have coerced the aspirations of the majority of the Taiwan people for peaceful reunification, or are they going farther and farther down the road of resisting reunification by force and relying on foreign countries to gain self-respect.

Fortunately, there are some people who have good intentions towards the mainland among Taiwan's politicians, such as Ma Ying-jeou, and cross-strait relations have developed very well, especially during his tenure as Taiwan's leader. Of course, we hope that with Ma Ying-jeou as a starting point, we will develop some people who support peaceful reunification in Taiwan's political ecology. But now, after all, he is a political figure with no real power, and his appeal is very limited.
Moreover, almost all of the real power figures of the Kuomintang in Taiwan are not interested in peaceful reunification, and one typical example is Zhu Lilun, chairman of the Kuomintang, who is an out-and-out pragmatic faction; after Ma Ying-jeou's visit to the mainland, he also wanted to visit the mainland, but he put forward some inappropriate conditions, which were really just for the sake of making political capital, and they were just putting on a show, and it was not easy to take them as the goal of united front work.

The possibility of peaceful reunification should mean that there are no political figures or organizations on the island of Taiwan that can support peaceful reunification, and at present, there are still some political figures and organizations in Taiwan that support peaceful reunification. Through the analysis of these three sentences, we should be able to clearly understand that the Chinese Government still attaches great importance to peaceful reunification.

In short, we have made clear the prerequisites for China's military reunification, that is, the emergence of three serious scenarios. It is hoped that the Taiwan independence forces and external anti-China forces will stop as soon as possible, and that Taiwan will have more forces that support peaceful reunification.
