July 2025 | On Thursday, July 10th 2025, China Macro Group (CMG) hosted a flash webinar to discuss the "Taiwan issue" under Trump 2.0. 

From declarations at the The Hague NATO Summit and Taiwan President Lai’s dialed-up rhetoric to the CCP’s new concept of “integrated or fused development” of Fujian province with Taiwan, TSMCs new investment in the US, former Taiwan President Ma Ying-jeou’s track 2.0 diplomacy, and persisting PLA exercises around Taiwan:

• What are the most important recent developments?

• What significance do they carry for the stability of cross-strait relations?

• Which are the key analytical indicators to watch moving forward?

This webinar analyzed and discussed key aspects of the evolving yet ever-complex “Taiwan issue” to support European and international business’ monitoring efforts and strategic decision-making regarding China and the Chinese market.

CMG Senior Advisor Frans-Paul van der Putten moderated the webinar with Prof. WU Yongping, Director of the Institute for Taiwan Studies and Former Vice Dean of the School of Public Administration at Tsinghua University and provided in-depth analysis and expert perspectives on this complex and timely topic for interested participants.
