Previously, the United States announced to the public that it would introduce two "Taiwan-related bills", and throughout September, these two bills will be heard in a concentrated manner. If the majority votes are supported in the Senate and House of Representatives, then President Biden will be is officially signed and effective.
According to media reports, these two bills are the so-called "US-Taiwan 21st Century Trade Initiative" and the "Taiwan Policy Act". Now the outside world generally believes that these two bills seem to advocate "enhancing US-Taiwan relations", but If it is really passed, it can be said that for Taiwan, it can be said that good fortune and misfortune depend on each other, and may even cause considerable trouble.
Former US President Trump During his reign, he imposed high unreasonable tariffs on Chinese products exported to the United States, resulting in the gradual reduction of cooperation between China and the United States in the economic field. After Biden took office, he continued Trump The strategy of the period has even announced the extension of the imposition of tariffs on China recently.
When China and the United States gradually showed confrontation in economic cooperation, the United States quietly began to win over Taiwan. Since the previous Pelosi has entered Taiwan, the United States has increasingly frequently shown its "friendly" side to the Taiwan region.
When the United States proposed the so-called "US-Taiwan Trade Initiative", Su Zhenchang, the head of Taiwan's "administrative agency", once hyped up. Before the negotiations on this plan began, he had said through a relevant spokesperson that the initiative's The launch is enough to prove that there will be a "huge breakthrough" in economic and trade between the United States and Taiwan.
Taiwan official Deng Zhenzhong even said bluntly that this is the "wish that Taiwan has been looking forward to for 30 years" and said that the United States and Taiwan have extremely high expectations for this initiative. But if you look at the specific matters of this initiative, you will find that most of the negotiations are based on the perspective of the United States, that is, the basis of this initiative is to fit the interests of the United States.
Take the input product inspection standards as an example. In this initiative, the United States can measure whether the inspection process in Taiwan is reasonable based on its own set of standards. In other words, as long as the United States is willing, it can use this to require Taiwan to relax the inspection standards for various input and output products.
Obviously, these actions have very limited "help" to Taiwan, and will even bring certain losses to Taiwan. The Taiwan authorities are very likely to be regarded as suckers in the end and pay for their wrong actions.
If this economic and trade initiative is just the United States forcing Taiwan to pay for its interests through its economic means, then the "Taiwan Policy Act" is clearly "grabbing money" from the Taiwan authorities.
In this "Taiwan Policy Act", the United States will consider including Taiwan as its "non- NATO allies", which is obviously a blatant provocation of the mainland and not abide by the "one-China principle".
In addition, according to this bill, the United States will also provide Taiwan with a "security fund" of US$4.5 billion. According to the United States' "commitment", this will be used to assist Taiwan in purchasing "defensive weapons" to achieve "Self-defense".
In addition to the above two bills that are about to be considered, According to the latest news released by Taiwan’s “Defense Department”, an arms sales plan to Taiwan worth more than US$1.1 billion has begun to enter the process of “notifying the US Congress” If it is successfully passed in the Senate and the House of Representatives, it is expected to take effect this month.
. According to British media reports, now, whether it is Republican or Democratic Party, they basically support this plan. Not only that, the "Taiwan Policy Act" also shows that Taiwan can increase military purchases through loans and financing from the United States.
In other words, even if the Taiwan authorities cannot spend more money to buy weapons from the United States at the moment, as long as the Taiwan authorities are willing to "be heavily in debt", there will always be a way to purchase more weapons from the United States through loans. However, while "arming" Taiwan, this method is also paying "protection fees" to the United States in exchange for its "promise to protect Taiwan".
For the United States, it can not only further instigate the Taiwan authorities to promote the so-called " asymmetric combat ", but also increase the cost of war loss when forcing the mainland to adopt a "non-peaceful method" to collect Taiwan in the future. In short, it is We must squeeze out the last slightest use value of the Taiwan authorities.
To put it bluntly, the United States just treats Taiwan as an "ATM", and the Taiwan authorities still dream of "relying on the United States to seek independence", but doing so will only further push Taiwan to the forefront and ultimately bear the responsibility The price is still more than 23 million Taiwanese people.
However, the DPP authorities are able to reach this point today, which shows that they have no longer put the vital interests of the Taiwanese people first, and are entirely for their own political self-interest. Then the final result of doing so will inevitably lead to Abandoned by the people.
