The new challenges to the Taiwan Cross-Strait equilibrium observed in the beginning of the second decade of the XXI century are the principle item of the article. The differences between Kuomintang’s and opposing it Democratic Progressive Party’s (DPP) visions of Taiwan’s future foreign policy are also reflected. The core issue is a potential possibility to speak about peaceful reunification of Chinese people or the political ambitions of the parties are the obstacle for the process of integration started. Today strengthening of economic ties can become a bridge that will connect the mainland China and Taiwan island with the simultaneous PRC seeking to become the link between the North-East Asia and South-East Asia. Thus, Beijing is looking for the ways of strengthening the relations with ASEAN – organization, which became the core of Asian integration.
