China's defense budget an indicator of confidence in peaceful reunification with Taiwan

01:40

The Taiwan question has always been the most important and sensitive issue in China-U.S. relations. Zhou Bo, a senior fellow at the Center for International Security and Strategy at Tsinghua University, pointed out that China's defense budget has remained at around 1.5 percent of the GDP in recent years, without any sharp increase or decrease, sending a signal about China's confidence in itself and the peaceful reunification between the Chinese mainland and the Taiwan region.
