Kuomintang (KMT) Chair Cheng Li-wun is scheduled to depart for the United States on June 1 for a two-week visit, during which she will tour major cities on the East and West coasts. The main theme of the visit is expected to be the "normalization of peace in the Taiwan Strait." Cheng noted today that from the talks between US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping in Beijing, it is clear that no one wants war and everyone wants peace. Cheng's visit is being coordinated by KMT's US representative Qin Rixin and others, with plans for International Department Director Dong Jiayu and Overseas Department Director Wu Liangyi to accompany her. Party insiders indicated that the visit aims to focus on the "normalization of peace in the Taiwan Strait" to find sustainable solutions for cross-strait peace. Furthermore, while attending the "2026 Pingtung Mazu Sisters Friendship Festival" today with Pingtung County Magistrate candidate Su Ching-chuan and Pingtung County Council Speaker Chou Tien-lun, Cheng mentioned that as believers of Mazu, everyone should strive to maintain peace and safety in the Taiwan Strait. Cheng stated that she believes everyone is committed to maintaining peace, stability, and prosperity in the Taiwan Strait, which is not only a blessing for all Taiwanese and cross-strait compatriots but also a common wish for all humanity.
