TAIPEI/BEIJING (Reuters) - Only the people of Taiwan can decide its future and will do so in elections in January, the island's opposition leader and presidential frontrunner said on Sunday, as China's top newspaper warned peace was at risk if it opted for independence.
A day after Chinese President Xi Jinping and Taiwan President Ma Ying-jeou held historic talks in Singapore, Tsai Ing-wen, leader of Taiwan's independence-leaning Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), said the leaders' meeting had done nothing to make Taiwan's people feel safer.
