Former Taiwan President Ma Ying-jeou is reportedly set to meet China’s Xi Jinping in Beijing early next month, marking an unprecedented event just weeks before the island inaugurates a new leader. Ma, a former chairman of the opposition Kuomintang party, who led the self-ruled democracy from 2008 to 2016, is scheduled to meet Xi on April 8. This news was reported by the Taiwanese online outlet Storm Media on Tuesday. The meeting is a significant development given the complex relations between Taiwan and China. It will be interesting to see the potential implications and the impact of this meeting on the future dynamics of the region.
