China will fight “resolutely” against the independence of Taiwan and in favor of the reunification of the homeland. This is the message that the Prime Minister, Li Kequiang, conveyed this Sunday at the meeting Annual National People’s Assembly.
Li Kequiang has assured that it will be a “peaceful process”, although he has subsequently announced a 7% increase in the budget Defense for the current year.
“Governments at all levels we must firmly support the development of national defense and the Armed Forces and carry out extensive activities to promote mutual support between the civilian sectors and the Army”, the Prime Minister said during his speech at the legislative session.
The defense spending announcement comes after the Chinese President Xi Jinping announced the goal of a “world-class force” by 2027, a time frame that coincides with the centennial of the People’s Liberation Army. Military spending, according to the report of the Ministry of Finance Chinese collected by ‘Global Times’, it is expected that increase by 1.5 trillion yuan (211,000 million euros).
