If they're using a false term but quoting someone they should use quotes:

Xi warned Biden during summit that Beijing will "reunify" Taiwan with China

Iit should always be apparent there is editorialization happening tho. Kinda like [sic] -> that is obviously the author clarifying they are not misquoting or misspelling

What you've written is still editorialising. The way it's written is also clear who was making the statement, Xi was. In the eyes of China it is reunifying, so no matter one's opinion, it is their stated opinion, so seems weird to put "reunfiy" in quotations when the rest isn't.
