TAIPEI - China will not change its position that Taiwan belongs to it and the world will only ever recognize that there is “one China”, Beijing said on Sunday after President Tsai Ing-wen won re-election and said she would not submit to China’s threats.

China’s ramped up efforts to get democratic Taiwan to accept Beijing’s rule under a “one country, two systems” model, as well as anti-government protests in Chinese-ruled Hong Kong, dominated the election campaign. Tsai won another four-year term by a landslide, and her Democratic Progressive Party also gained a majority in parliament.

The Chinese government will not change its stance sticking to the “one China” principle and opposing Taiwan independence, it added.
