China underscored its commitment Saturday to its claim to Taiwan, telling world leaders that anyone who gets in the way of its determination to reunify with the self-governing island would be 바카라œcrushed by the wheels of history.바카라Â 

바카라œOnly when China is fully reunified can there be true peace across the Taiwan Strait,바카라 Wang Yi, China's foreign minister, said at the U.N. General Assembly. He said Beijing would 바카라œtake the most forceful steps to oppose external interference.바카라

China vehemently defends its claim on Taiwan, which separated from the mainland after a 1949 civil war and now functions with its own government. A recent visit by the speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi, markedly ratcheted up tensions between Washington and Beijing. 

The language, while forceful, was not out of the realm of the normal for China. Taiwan is a core issue of the country's policy, and Wang's appearance 바카라” instead of his boss, Chinese leader Xi Jinping 바카라” was a signal that the speech was not a major one.
