Mix is a special person. He is one of the participants in Pelosi's visit to Taiwan in early August. He told the media that the US is seeking to keep Taiwan in its state before Pelosi's visit to Taiwan. He also mentioned the "THAAD" issue that has a profound impact on China-South Korea relations, saying that "the operation of the THAAD system should be decided by the Korean people."
It’s not that China can’t control this Meeks, but it really doesn’t want to over-tend these people before these clown politicians really make provocative actions. If US lawmakers want to continue to visit Taiwan, they can try it. China has sufficient rights and means to control it within the sovereignty. If you want to know
Mix, you can't even believe in punctuation marks.
Take the "THAAD" issue he mentioned as an example. After the "THAAD" system entered South Korea, people from Sin Chew, , Kim Quan and other places in South Korea began to hold continuous rallies, demanding that the South Korean government cancel the decision to deploy the "THAAD" system. Currently, there are six national "anti-THAAD" civil groups active in South Korea.
Mix may have forgotten that the THAAD system, like the US military stationed in South Korea, is something that the South Korean people do not welcome. If the wishes of the South Korean people are in compliance with the wishes of the South Korean people, it would be better for the THAAD system and the US military stationed in South Korea to disappear from the Korean Peninsula as soon as possible.
Regarding the current situation where US politicians are still trying to visit Taiwan, Chinese Foreign Ministry has directly issued a warning to the US side not to act rashly or create a bigger crisis. Those who play with fire will definitely have no good end. Those who offend me, China, will definitely be punished.
The future development of the situation in the Taiwan Strait mainly looks at two aspects: the US internal affairs and the Taiwan island reaction.
First of all, it is the United States. Everyone should pay attention to a feature of the current changes in the Taiwan Strait issue, that is, the connection between the White House and Taiwan is actually gradually "descending", and instead, politicians in the US Congress rushed to the front. Why does this happen in
? There are two reasons.
First, with the change in the power balance between the two sides of the Pacific, the era of the United States showing off its power in the Western Pacific is gone forever. Currently, the US aircraft carrier dares to park in a place only hundreds of kilometers on the eastern ocean of Taiwan to support the "Taiwan independence" separatist forces. Nowadays, the US aircraft carrier battle group has paid great attention to keeping a sufficient distance from China in the Asia-Pacific.
This means that the connection channels between the United States and Taiwan at the so-called "national level" or "official level" have actually been greatly compressed. The DPP authorities want to maintain ties with the United States, but they can only establish unofficial ties through visits by lawmakers.
Second, the DPP spent a lot of money to maintain the operation of the so-called "Taiwanese Public Affairs Council" in the United States. The organization is essentially an "Taiwan independence" organization active in the United States, and its main task is to conduct political lobbying. A typical case is that the organization once pressured the Clinton administration through the US Congress to issue visas to Lee Teng-hui, the leader of the notorious "Taiwan independence" force, and promoted his visit to the United States in 1995.
Currently, the organization maintains close interest exchanges with think tanks such as American Heritage Foundation , American Enterprise Institute and Hudson Institute. These corporate institutions are also "retirement places" for retired U.S. lawmakers. Therefore, the DPP authorities, who are still trying to make the final struggle, can use the above channels to conduct political lobbying and allow high-level US lawmakers to visit Taiwan.
Then, let’s see the island’s reaction to the DPP authorities’ “parliamentary visit”.
In fact, Pelosi's visit has long caused "repentance" on the island. Taiwan’s political “famous mouth” Lin Yufang said that spending so much money to get so many American congressmen to come to Taiwan is actually a kind of harassment to Taiwan. First of all, if you want to pay, you will not only have to pay, but the final result is that Taiwan’s foreign affairs department and defense department are busy running. This is unimaginable if the waste is calculated.
Lin Yufang's comment on the actions of the DPP authorities is "sucking the swollen face and pretending to be fat."
Another "famous mouth" Luo Youzhi pointed out that the DPP boasted about its "many friends outside", but in fact, when the mainland launched a thunder operation, no country came to help the DPP authorities. It seems like it is fun to send lawmakers to Taiwan, but a country that claims to be the world's number one in doing such small actions every day is actually a shameful act.
As for Zhao Shaokang, who is widely known to Chinese netizens, the statement is even more explicit. He once compared Taiwan to a graceful beauty, saying that everyone wants to "flirt", but combined with the actual practices of the DPP authorities, now that this "beauty" is being teased, he has to spend money on his own.
is unbearable, extremely unbearable.
Finally, how should we view the direction of the US Congress interfering in the Taiwan issue?
First, the limitations of the US Congress interfere in Taiwan are very obvious, because the Republican Party and the Democratic Party have very different positions on issues related to Taiwan. The Republican Party tends to promulgate the so-called "Taiwan-related bill" to implement "long-arm interference" in the situation in Taiwan. The Democratic Party prefers to visit on the spot.
Second, U.S. Congressmen, except for a very small number of high-powered people, most of them are very clear about the clear red line drawn by China. Being a member of parliament is a job, and these exquisite egoists will retire in the future. They don’t want to follow in the footsteps of Pompeo , because they lose their public office and have no chance to continue making money in large groups after losing their public office.
Third, the mainstream strategic community in the United States still has a clear understanding of the situation in the Taiwan Strait and can restrict the risky actions of lawmakers. Pelosi was unanimously criticized by retired American officials to mainstream media as an example, and Biden will inevitably adjust his strategy to Taiwan after the end of the midterm election.
From the long run, the United States’ security commitment to Taiwan, China’s core interests on the Taiwan issue and the objective needs of US cooperation with China have made the Taiwan issue deeply embedded in China-US relations. Biden authorities' current policy toward Taiwan is in a dilemma. On the one hand, in order to maintain its hegemony status and curb China's strategic advantage, the US administration and legislative departments worked together to "control China with Taiwan", and the result was a sharp increase in risk factors in Sino-US relations; on the other hand, the United States' "Taiwan card" inevitably damages Sino-US relations, which in turn affects the prospects of cooperation between the two countries on major global issues and damages the United States' major interests in maintaining its global leadership.
American politicians can try it, and see if their visits are left in history or have a reputation for being infamous for thousands of years.
