China has not yet resumed sovereignty over Taiwan; at least that is the opinion of the newspapers in the United States. China claims it has sovereignty. Taiwan has allowed China some privileges. What sovereignty will mean is a question.

Can Taiwan win China?

I am not sure what you mean by this question. Taiwan is regarded by China as a breakaway province, while Taiwan sees itself as an independent nation. If you are asking whether Taiwan can "win over" China-- to persuade China to accept Taiwan as an independent country, that is very unlikely, since the Chinese government is firmly insistent that Taiwan must rejoin China. At this point, China has not threatened Taiwan nor is there a possibility of a war, but both countries see themselves very differently, and I doubt that will change at any time in the near future.
