reunification is imminent, but the Taiwan media is hyping that "the Taiwan military fired the first shot"?
1: Taiwanese media are hyping what the Taiwan military has done
When mainland drones flying over Kinmen and other related airspace have become the "new normal", many Taiwanese media are hyping: Three mainland sortiescivilian drones entered Kinmen Over the relevant waters, the Taiwan military conducted "live fire" on one of the drones for the first time.
It is worth noting that the Taiwan military also specifically emphasized that this eviction was the first time that the Taiwan military had "fired to drive away", which was equivalent to "the Taiwan military fired the first shot." Previously, they had fired flares. This shows the Taiwan military's "self-defense" capabilities and determination.
However, Taiwan’s actions did not attract much praise.
Most of the voices are: Taiwan's military dared to fire the first shot, turning the "cold situation" into a "hot situation". also used so-called "military means" to "attack" drones flying normally in the mainland. can only make the already tense situation in the Taiwan Strait continue to heat up, and the gains outweigh the losses.
In fact, Kinmen is our territory. There is nothing wrong with Chinese drones flying normally on Chinese territory, and it is not worth making a fuss about.
However, the Taiwan authorities do not think so.
According to statistics from the Taiwan military, the number of mainland drones patrolling Kinmen has reached 23. This has indeed made the Taiwan authorities worried. believes that relevant measures need to be taken, otherwise it will cause unpredictable serious consequences. Not only do no one come, As opportunities increase, the morale of Taiwan's military will also suffer a serious blow, which will inevitably pose a threat to the so-called "defense sector" in Taiwan.
Therefore, Tsai Ing-wen responded to the frequent appearance of mainland drones in Kinmen on the 30th. Ordered the Taiwan military to "take strong countermeasures in a timely manner" . Since the Tsai administration has already given the order, how could the Taiwan military not listen? principle.
Judging from the Taiwan military's "live ammunition eviction" and Taiwan media reports, the Taiwan military did not hit the drone, but this was equivalent to "firing the first shot." This act itself is a serious provocation and is It may lead to the escalation of cross-strait conflict.
If the Taiwan military dares to shoot down our drone, it will most likely have serious consequences. Once the situation gets out of control, Taiwan will quickly go home and reunion will become a reality.
However, even if it is as hyped by the Taiwanese media and the Taiwan military really fired the first shot and used "live ammunition shooting" to drive away the mainland drones, it does not mean that the mainland will give up "drone patrols". Kinmen’s new normal.
Why did Tsai Ing-wen dare to issue this order?
Two: How dare Tsai Ing-wen
There are two possibilities.
Type 1: Showing off to win votes.
The countdown to Taiwan's "nine-in-one" election has entered. In order to maintain their status and power, the current Democratic Progressive Party authorities cannot remain unmoved.
At this stage, the DPP authorities "rely on the United States and seek independence" and send large amounts of financial benefits to the United States with great fanfare, even harming the interests of the people on the island and escalating the cross-strait situation. This has aroused high dissatisfaction among the people on the island. Cai Support ratings for the English-speaking authorities also fell sharply.
More importantly, what most people on the island look forward to most is "peace."
Even Annette Annette, who is the most popular person on the island at the moment, specifically warned Tsai Ing-wen "We should do our best to avoid war and create a peaceful and stable situation on the island.".
In the street interviews that have been reported, most people said that they "do not want to go to the battlefield" and "want to live a stable life." Therefore, the purpose of the Taiwan authorities' "action" this time is also very clear.
Tsai Ing-wen’s purpose in ordering the eviction is:
Let the people see that the DPP is indeed working hard for peace on the island.
However, if the Taiwan military actually shoots down a mainland drone with live ammunition during this period, the consequences will be too serious, so the Taiwan military most likely did not intend to hit it, just to let the people on the island see that it has taken action, Just for show.
The second type: Still holding out hope for reinforcements from the United States and Japan.
Tsai Ing-wen and others dare to be so arrogant because they rely on the support of the United States. looks forward to one day receiving reinforcements from the United States and Japan, and has never given up on this plan.
However, judging from the current situation, there is no hope of reinforcements.
United States
Since Pelosi fled to Taiwan and the United States and the Pelosi family were severely sanctioned by our side, the United States has become much less involved in the Taiwan Strait. has made several "runs" from the U.S. aircraft carrier "Reagan" to Taiwan several times. This can be seen in the final sad return to Japan’s home port.
However, the United States has reduced its intensity, but it has still not completely stopped.
A few days ago, the United States once again dispatched two warships through the Taiwan Strait under the banner of "free navigation", which also once again heated up the situation in the Taiwan Strait. We immediately counterattacked, dispatching warships to one south and one north to conduct exercises. In the end, the two US warships Driving away from under a highly tense background, although it did not do anything too outrageous, it still had an adverse impact on the situation in the Taiwan Strait.
日本
At this stage, the "Vostok-2022" joint military exercise led by China and Russia will be held in the Sea of Japan and other waters. Although the Japanese media has vigorously promoted that Japan is improving its "countermeasures capabilities," Japan may not have this strength.
How can I spare my hands to support the Taiwan authorities when I am so busy?
The most important thing is that Japan is not qualified to make any comments on the "Taiwan issue". As a country that bears "historical guilt", the most important thing to do is to admit history, admit its mistakes and correct them. If Japan still maintains its tough attitude towards China and continues to do evil things, the consequences will be disastrous, and they may not be able to bear this.
Three: Why is there a lot of sarcastic voices on the island
According to public information, after the Taiwanese media advocated that "Taiwanese troops opened fire to drive away drones from the mainland", there were not a large number of compliments and responses on the island. On the contrary, sarcastic voices emerged one after another. The reason for is also very intuitive.
First of all, most people on the island have realized the purpose of the DPP authorities and are also aware of the huge gap in strength between the Taiwan military and the People's Liberation Army.
Secondly, The actions of the DPP authorities have caused huge damage to the interests of the people on the island, and the image cannot be changed so easily.
Finally, the vast majority of the people on the island long for cross-strait reunification. The actions of the DPP authorities and other "independence-seeking elements" are hindering the progress of cross-strait reunification, and naturally they will not be "well received."
In fact, the current situation is very clear. The ultimate outcome is "cross-strait reunification and a new future together." However, the Tsai Ing-wen authorities still do not repent, and even insist on taking the "wrong path" and still longing for the US-Japanese future. "Foreign aid" is simply nonsense, and even the people on the island can't stand it.
As for the "Taiwan military's live ammunition 'driving away' our drones", it has indeed caused a considerable impact. But no matter what subsequent actions the Taiwan authorities take, no matter whether the United States and Japan will "give it a try", We will not make any concessions, and we will do our best to achieve cross-strait reunification as soon as possible.
So far, it depends on whether the "independence elements" inside and outside the island will repent.
