The state-owned newspaper Global Times, seen as a mouthpiece for the ruling Communist party, wrote: “The Chinese mainland should display its resolution to recover Taiwan by force.”
The editorial piece went on to describe the recent comments by the US President-elect regarding Taiwan as a “farce”.
It stressed that China is now forced to be “vigilant” and forestall any potential US actions regarding the matter with their own actions.
The paper wrote: “It might be time for the Chinese mainland to reformulate its Taiwan policy, make the use of force as a main option and carefully prepare for it.”
“If the Chinese mainland won’t pile on more pressure over realising reunification by using force, the chance of peaceful unification will only slip away.
“Independent forces on the island publicly believe that time is on their side… they can turn the tables with the help of international forces.
