Cheng visits china amid tensions

Cheng, the chairwoman of Taiwan's Kuomintang (KMT) party, made the comments during her first full day in china, a trip that comes as Beijing ramps up military pressure on Taipei, which it views as its own territory.

Cheng laid a wreath at the mausoleum of Sun Yat-sen, the founder of the Republic of china, in Nanjing, china. Sun is still revered in Taiwan as the country's founding father.
