Xi Jinping meets Taiwan opposition
During the meeting at the Great Hall of the People, Xi emphasized that people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait share a common cultural heritage.
The visit arrives at a time of significant tension as Taiwan's government continues to face military pressure from Beijing.
Cheng's trip has drawn both hope for improved engagement and sharp domestic criticism in Taiwan.
The talks are seen as a strategic move by China to appeal to segments of the Taiwanese public ahead of upcoming international developments.
