Does China try to obtain Taiwan?

Relations between the People's Republic of China and the United States have generally been volatile, especially after the fall of the Soviet Union, which removed a common enemy and ushered in a world characterized by American dominance. Some in the United States remain suspicious of the Communist Party of China and believe that its goal is to establish hegemony in East Asia and threaten US interests. There are also grievances which relate to human rights in the People's Republic of China and the PRC's claims on Republic of China's territory. For its part, there are suspicions in the PRC that the United States wishes to keep China weak and divided and that criticisms pertaining to its human rights record are unwarranted in light of the economic and living standard improvements that have occurred in the country.
