Cheng Li-wun, leader of Taiwan's main opposition party, has accepted an invitation from Xi Jinping to visit China, with the visit scheduled for April 2026.

This marks a significant moment as it will be the first visit by a sitting leader of Taiwan's opposition party in ten years, indicating a potential shift in cross-strait dynamics.
