Taiwan's Political Tightrope: Balancing Relations with China and the US.
TL;DR
Taiwan's former president, Ma Ying-jeou, has visited China, the first by a current or former Taiwanese president since 1949, calling for people on both sides of the Taiwan strait to work together for peace. The visit comes at the same time as a significant trip by the current president, Tsai Ing-wen, to the US and Central America this week. The visits have thrown up a host of questions about how the two sides of politics are dealing with China and with the US – the two most significant foreign factors in Taiwan’s future.
