China announced new "goodwill" measures toward Taiwan on April 12, 2026, following a historic meeting between President Xi Jinping and opposition leader Cheng Li-wun in Beijing. The policies include easing restrictions on Taiwanese agricultural and fishery product sales to mainland China, aiming to boost cross-strait economic ties. Beijing also pledged to encourage mainland investment in Taiwan and resume select outbound travel to the island, marking a shift in cross-strait engagement. The moves follow Xi’s rare direct talks with a Taiwanese opposition figure, signaling potential thawing in relations amid longstanding tensions. Xinhua framed the steps as efforts to promote "peaceful development" between China and Taiwan, though Taipei’s response remains unaddressed.
