Fleming, head of the British communications and intelligence unit "Government Communications Headquarters" (GCHQ), claimed that an accident in the Taiwan Strait will impact global supply chain and economic growth, as well as the strategic resilience of the UK. Qiu Guozheng, head of the defense department of the DPP authorities, pointed out in an interview today (12th) that it can be seen from the impact of the Russian-Ukrainian war in February that not only the Taiwan Strait, but also all places will have an impact, and it is necessary to try to avoid the outbreak of the war.
For the US military to recommend that if war breaks out in the Taiwan Strait, Taiwan chip engineers should be taken away first. Qiu Guozheng said that Taiwan must rely on its own defense and does not expect any situation to happen, so Taiwan military is restraining to avoid the outbreak of war. He also said that the "Han Guang Exercise Training" usually has various backgrounds, but so far there is no situation with this script.
The Legislative Yuan "External Affairs and Defense Committee" invited Qiu Guozheng to conduct a special project report on the "Construction Plan for the New Generation of Light Patrol Ships of the Taiwan Navy". Qiu Guozheng pointed out that the Taiwan military's Jiyang-class ship is indeed very old and has been in service for many years, and the recent situation in mainland China has also put a lot of "pressure". The Taiwan Army had certain procedures for "establishing the army". In the early days, the Taiwan Navy planned which ships to replace each year, and all were carried out according to the schedule. At present, when the situation was encountered, it was a little more urgent, but all were carried out according to the schedule. (Lin Jingxian/editor)
