Taiwan's "IOC Chairman" Li Zhongwei recently submitted an inquiry to the Taiwan Legislative Body regarding the rumors that "the mainland has recently used drones to conduct reconnaissance around the Dongsha Island ". If there is Emergency situations will be handled in accordance with regulations, and "fire when it's time to fire." He was criticized by Taiwanese media for "speaking boldly, but being extremely reckless. Irresponsible and unreliable, and even more unofficial."
According to Taiwanese media reports, Dongsha Island is under the responsibility of the Dongsha Command of Taiwan's "Maritime Commission Maritime Patrol Office", but the Coast Guard The mission is more like "maritime police" and does not have the authority to command marines. So, when Li Zhongwei said "fire when it's time to fire," did he want the Taiwan Strait Patrol officers and soldiers to fire, or did he have the authorization to command the Taiwan Marine Corps to fire? And does the "emergency situation" mentioned by Li Zhongwei refer to drones circling the island, or the People's Liberation Army seizing Dongsha Island? If it's the latter, shouldn't it be Tsai Ing-wen who gives the orders?
But Tsai Ing-wen herself did not dare to say this. In order to avoid misfires, Taiwan's defense department has recently revised the "Regulations on Dealing with Emergency Situations During Periods of Regular Combat Preparation" several times.
The previous specifications of this regulation were:
In order to demonstrate Taiwan's "peace-loving", the "first shot" on both sides of the Taiwan Strait will not be fired;
The "first strike" in the revised guidelines in September last year was renamed "Exercise the right of self-defense and counterattack";
Later, it will be It was changed to "Do not provoke or take the initiative to attack, take the first blow, and exercise the right to counterattack in self-defense after identifying the hostile intention."
Taiwan’s military has changed and changed again and again, and been cautious and cautious. The purpose is simply to judge the possibility of war and avoid a misfire. But as soon as the official got excited, he said "open fire"!
In the DPP authorities, there is more than one official who speaks out like this.
Far away, Su Tseng-chang, the head of Taiwan’s administrative agency, once threatened that if he was given a broom, he would fight with the mainland. As soon as this statement came out, he not only received a widely circulated picture of Su Zhenchang flying on a broomstick, but also attracted mainland netizens to actually send him a broomstick.
Recently, Wu Zhaoxie, director of Taiwan’s foreign affairs department, claimed when meeting with overseas media on the 7th, “We have the will to self-defense, there is no doubt about it. If we need to fight, we will fight. If we need to defend ourselves until the last possible moment, God, we will defend ourselves until the last day."
Joseph Wu also falsely claimed that U.S. policymakers "clearly see the danger that China may attack Taiwan; and Taiwan will increase its military spending and is determined to strengthen its military capabilities."
However, the fact that the United States and Japan are "concerned about Taiwan's security" does not mean that they will definitely take practical actions to help Taiwan. Public opinion on the island has repeatedly reminded the DPP authorities and their officials to "look at it pragmatically" and not just look at the United States. By intentionally relaxing restrictions on "interactions between U.S. and Taiwan officials," they mistakenly believe that the Biden administration has given a "green light" and continue to hype the topic of "anti-China."
Excerpted from the official Facebook page of the US aircraft carrier Theodore Roosevelt
The USS "Roosevelt" aircraft carrier battle group entered the South China Sea from the Malacca Strait earlier this mont, The U.S. Pacific Fleet announced on its official website on April 7 that the "Roosevelt" aircraft carrier battle group held an exercise with the Royal Malaysian Air Force in the South China Sea from April 6 to 7. This is a joint exercise between the United States and Malaysia. The first bilateral exercise in 2021.
Liaoning ship
On April 5, a spokesperson of the Chinese Navy confirmed that the Liaoning ship aircraft carrier formation was conducting training in the waters surrounding Taiwan, and formed a "semi-encirclement" of Taiwan with the People's Liberation Army military aircraft cruising around the island. Whether the Chinese and American aircraft carrier groups will "accidentally encounter" each other in the South China Sea has attracted attention from all walks of life.
Taiwanese media pointed out that Taiwan has no possibility of commenting on the South China Sea issue, but it should try to cool down the current confrontation between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait, or at least eliminate hostility and refrain from provocation.
Officials of the Democratic Progressive Party authorities, have you heard this?
State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi recently reminded Japan's Foreign Minister "not to cross the red line", clearly expressing that the mainland's insistence on sovereignty and territorial integrity is irreconcilable, and Taiwan is the top priority issue. So, the mainland can pay any price for cross-strait reunification. How much price do the DPP authorities expect the United States, Japan and other countries to be willing to pay? The answer is 0.
