BEIJING, Sept. 25 (Xinhua) -- China's top political advisor Wang Huning on Monday called for consolidating and developing the broadest patriotic united front to build a modern socialist country in all respects and push for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

"On the new journey toward building a modern socialist country in all respects, we will continue to fully, faithfully and resolutely implement the principle of 'one country, two systems,' practice the principle that Hong Kong and Macao should be administered by patriots, and thus further integrate Hong Kong and Macao into the country's overall development," Wang said.
On Taiwan, Wang called for efforts to resolutely oppose "Taiwan independence" separatist activities and foreign interference, promote the peaceful and integrated development of cross-Strait relations, and unswervingly advance the great cause of national reunification.
