Former DPP chair praises Hung-Xi meeting, says lessens hostility / 許信良:洪習會對兩岸關係具正向意義　　　　　　　　　　

The two party talks between the Kuomintang Chair Hung Hsiu-chiu and Chinese Communist Party leader Xi Jinping, during when, Xi offered six points for discussion which has been taken by some as a call to the Tsai Ing-wen administration. However, former Democratic Progressive Party Chair Hsu Hsin-liang believes that the meeting has positive significance for cross-strait relations, as it can reduce Chinese hostility and not allow China to think that there is only one voice inTaiwan . After the Hung-Xi meeting, Chinese Communist Party leader Xi Jinping proposed a basis for 'one China' of six points to negotiate the cross-strait deadlock. This is seen as an implied call to the Democratic Progressive Party government. However, former Democratic Progressive Party Chair Hsu Hsin-liang praised the Hung-Xi meeting and thinks that it has positive significance for cross-strait relations, as it can reduce Chinese hostility. He feels that even during the Chen Shui-bian regime people were engaged in cross strait exchanges and that China does not want to see a deadlock between the two sides. ==HSU HSIN-LIANG, former Democratic Progressive Party Chair== Hung Hsiu-chu's contribution to cross straits after the DPP government came to power means that the worst is over, so Hung's going there lifted the winter over cross straits relations. ==CHU WU-HSIEN, former Mainland Affairs Council legal director== China really does not want this confrontational situation, for this tense situation to continue, so has found ways to make a breakthrough However, Lee Hsin, Taipei City councillor who once stood against Hung for KMT party chair expressed a lack of support for the Hung-Xi meeting as she feels it leads to internal discontent and disputes. Deep green politicans have also expressed discontent for the meeting. ==LEE HSIN, KMT Taipei City councillor== This thing with China has given rise to a lot of discontent within the party, last year changing Hung as presidential candidate was because of the one China same interpretation issue. == HUANG CHING-LIN, former DPP Taipei City councillor== These actions for the KMT overall is a plus but for her within the party its a minus throughout the KMT. After the new administration took office cross strait relations were frozen. Although difficult, Hsu Hsin-liang predicts that the Hung-Xi meeting has helped China to take a more pragmatic view of the DPP's cross-strait policy.
