China Reopens Limited Cross-Strait Ties After KMT Leader Visit

TL;DR Summary
Beijing said it would resume select ties with Taiwan—such as direct flights and imports of aquaculture products—and pursue a cross-strait communication mechanism with Taiwan's Kuomintang after a visit by KMT leader Cheng Li-wun; Taipei called these moves political transactions that bypass the government, while China signaled broader ambitions like a bridge to Matsu and Kinmen and continued military pressure near the island.
