However, Li Zhanshu, the third-most-senior leader of China’s ruling Communist Party, told the same event that non-peaceful means were an option of last resort. A 2005 law gives China the legal right to take military action against Taiwan, which it considers a Chinese province. And China has never renounced the use of force to bring Taiwan under its control. But such an explicit statement from the military is incredibly rare. Taiwan's government denounced the comments.
