President William Lai (賴清德) yesterday said that it would be impossible to achieve cross-strait peace simply by accepting the so-called “1992 consensus” and Beijing’s “one China” principle.

Lai made the remarks at the opening ceremony of the Overseas Community Affairs Council Conference in Taipei after former Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) lawmaker Cheng Li-wun (鄭麗文), who favors closer ties with Beijing, was elected as KMT chairwoman on Saturday.

The KMT on Sunday confirmed that Cheng had received a congratulatory message from Chinese President Xi Jinping (習近平) for her win and she reiterated her support for the “1992 consensus” in her reply to Xi.
