The unofficial consensus between the KMT/PRC was that Taiwan and China are one country. The NED-funded DPP has been trying to break that status quo, though.

What's the NED and DPP? I've been staying away from the news. I'll look them up in the future.

DPP is Taiwan's current governing party. Rather tight ties with the US government funded National Endowment for Democracy (NED).
