Time enters 2022, but the tension on both sides of the Taiwan Strait has not been eased at all, but the situation shows signs of further heating up. A few days ago, the United States and Japan gathered five " aircraft carrier " to hold joint military exercises in the southern waters of Okinawa, and this place happened to be located in the eastern part of Taiwan, so the intention of their move is self-evident, and they simply wanted to take the opportunity to boost courage for separatist forces on the island.
Faced with provocation and pressure, China has never surrendered, not to mention that it is related to sovereignty and territorial integrity, so there is no possibility of retreating. Our army immediately organized air force forces and sent 39 military aircraft to patrol the Taiwan Strait to shock the villains. In addition, there is another thing that has attracted widespread attention recently, and the latest news finally came after a week.
media reported on January 26 that the Taiwanese authorities forcibly boarded a mainland fishing boat in the waters near Penghu on the grounds of "crossing the border". Not only did they throw all the thousands of kilograms of fish on the boat into the sea, but they also forcibly seized 14 crew members. Not only that, during the confrontation between the two sides, the law enforcement officers of Taiwan's "Coast Guard Department" even threatened to fire.
In response to this, Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council spokesperson Zhu Fenglian said that the DPP should respect the fact that fishermen on both sides of the Taiwan Strait have been operating in their respective traditional fishing areas for a long time, immediately stop using violent and dangerous means to treat mainland fishermen, and forcefully detain mainland fishing boats, and ensure the safety of the lives and property of relevant personnel, and release people as soon as possible. We have always treated the fishermen on the island with a friendly attitude, but in return this result, it is really disappointing.
Since the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council has already made a statement, it means that the two sides are negotiating and negotiating on the incident. If they are arrogant, we have sufficient tools to counteract. In short, we will definitely do our best to protect the rights and interests of our fishermen. It is worth mentioning that the Taiwan authorities have been continuously strengthening the so-called "coast patrol force" since 2021, and even colluding with the United States to hold "joint drills".
In other words, detention of mainland fishing boats is actually a microcosm of their "independence" behavior. The essence is to deliberately provoke confrontation and intensify cross-strait conflicts. But the Taiwan authorities didn't think about it. The United States is 108,000 miles away from the Taiwan Strait. If a war really happens, it can pat its butt and leave at any time, but where can "Taiwan independence" escape? There is only a dead end to them.
Regarding this, spokesperson Zhu Fenglian also responded. She pointed out that the DPP colluded with external forces and continued to "seek independence" to provoke, which is the fundamental reason for the tension. Therefore, Zhu Fenglian warned the Taiwan authorities that the collusion between the US Taiwan Strait Guard departments will directly affect the peace and stability of the Taiwan Strait. If you dare to cause trouble, you will suffer the consequences.
Frankly speaking, the two sides of the Taiwan Strait belong to the same my country. Taiwan has been an inalienable territory since ancient times. Since this is the case, how can the "cross-border" be said to be "cross-border". It is reasonable and legal for Chinese fishing boats to navigate and operate in their own waters, and the Taiwan authorities have no reason to obstruct. In the past few years, the other side has arrested mainland fishing boats almost every year. We have endured it for too long. If we don’t release people immediately, the 1.4 billion Chinese people will not agree.
Finally, it should be pointed out that the various problems encountered at present are ultimately due to the fact that the country has not been unified yet and is still in a state of division, so this problem cannot be continued. At least it should be solved by our generation, and this historical task must not be left to the next generation. The mainland hopes to achieve unity through peaceful means, but the practices of the Taiwan authorities are constantly consuming our patience. If "harmony" is completely hopeless, then decisive measures can only be taken.
Recently, the former U.S. Admiral admitted in an interview that if our army "takes Taiwan", Washington will probably impose economic sanctions on China and provide weapons to the Taiwan authorities, but will not send troops directly. If there is no interference from the US military and other overseas forces, we are confident that we will raise the five-star red flag on the island within one day.
