All-China Federation of Taiwan Compatriots

The All-China Federation of Taiwan Compatriots (ACFTC) is a people's organization composed mainly of Taiwanese residing in the People's Republic of China whose official aim is Chinese unification.

History
The ACFTC was established on 22 December 1981 in Beijing.

Starting in 2017, the ACFTC took on a more prominent role in the CCP's united front efforts directed at Taiwan.

During the run-up to the 2024 Taiwanese presidential election, the ACFTC coordinated editorial attacks against presidential candidate Lai Ching-te, framing him as "pro-war".

In 2024, Taiwan's Mainland Affairs Council banned its citizens from working at the ACFTC due to national security concerns.
