As soon as Xia Liyan, Vice Chairman of the Chinese Kuomintang, returned to the island after completing his visit to the mainland, the Kuomintang started some dangerous experiments again. According to the latest news from Lianhe Zaobao, the Kuomintang is expected to send important officials to visit the United States in mid-September and will also visit members of the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives.
According to Chen Yixin, the "democratic representative" of the Kuomintang, about 10 cross-party politicians will go to the United States for exchanges this time. In other words, the DPP and the Kuomintang may "organize a group" to visit the United States. However, he did not disclose whether he would meet with Pelosi , but emphasized that this trip will also meet with the US State Department and the Department of Defense.
If this plan comes to fruition, it will be Following Zhu Lilun’s “visit to the United States”, the Kuomintang has sent important personnel for the second time this year to conduct “political interactions” with the United States. This also shows from the side that even if it does It is difficult to change its "pro-U.S." nature even if it shows goodwill toward dialogue with the mainland.
The reason why the news was announced through the media only after Xia Liyan returned to Taiwan is that on the one hand, he was worried about angering the mainland and affecting the results of this cross-strait interaction; on the other hand, it was also to show the so-called "sincerity" to the United States to avoid being accusations against the United States.
Therefore, during Xia Liyan's visit to the mainland, Zhu Lilun frequently talked about being "pro-American, friendly with Japan, and friendly with the mainland", which was equivalent to an indirect statement to the United States, that is, "the Kuomintang will always be a pro-American party." In this case, it is not surprising that the Kuomintang has made arrangements to "visit the United States again."
Judging from the current situation, the Kuomintang's "visit to the United States" may have two purposes. The first is to persuade the United States not to continue to make aggressive advances in the Taiwan Strait in the near future, so as not to cause military misjudgment and trigger the mainland to "use military means" to contain Taiwan. , this can be roughly inferred from the fact that the main people he met included people from the US Department of Defense.
Second, it is to "explain" the recent exchanges and dialogue between the Kuomintang and the mainland to the United States to avoid being "misunderstood" by the United States. After all, the Kuomintang has always hoped to win the support of the United States. Even in the context of dialogue with the mainland, the Kuomintang still has illusions about the United States.
Today, for the Kuomintang, it is the best time to "regain the respect of the United States." The reason why I say this is because the DPP is bent on "independence", which has caused it to completely lose the political foundation for dialogue with the mainland. The Kuomintang, on the other hand, claims to be the "one channel" for cross-strait communication and has more advantages than the DPP.
The Kuomintang’s ability to position itself as a “cross-strait communicator” has certain positive significance from the perspective of the overall stability of the Taiwan Strait. But the crux of the matter is that it is not the Kuomintang that really plays a decisive role in this, but the mainland's goodwill towards Taiwan compatriots.
Out of the overall consideration of safeguarding the vital interests of the people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, as long as the Kuomintang adheres to the " 1992 Consensus" and opposes "Taiwan independence", the mainland will never close the door to dialogue with it. Therefore, the Kuomintang should not overestimate its own value, and should clearly see whose hands currently hold the initiative in the Taiwan Strait.
No matter whether it is "pro-America" or "friendly to Japan", neither path can save the Kuomintang, let alone bring peace to the more than 23 million Taiwanese people. The only right path is to insist on "unification"!
It is worth mentioning that just when the Kuomintang was swinging back and forth and starting to make " opportunistic " mistakes, the stubborn "Taiwan independence" Annette Lu took up the banner of "calling for cross-strait peace". She called on the Taiwan region not to Taking the initiative to start a war, he said, "There is no reason for the two sides of the Taiwan Strait to go to the stage of war. If a conflict breaks out across the Taiwan Strait, it will destroy generations of people."
She reminded that no matter which political party is "in power" on the island, the most important thing is to ensure that cross-strait relations do not continue to become tense. She also believes that in the context of the current heating up of the situation in the Taiwan Strait, the Taiwan region should refuse to "choose sides" and not get involved in the "whirlpool of Sino-US confrontation."
Even die-hard "Taiwan independence" advocates have come out to call for peace. This only shows that many politicians on the island are very worried about the current situation and no longer believe in the United States' promise to "send troops to protect Taiwan", so they are considering "changing others to save Taiwan". To save myself.” Of course, in the final analysis, this is still to seek "independence", so there is no need to have too many illusions about its so-called "peace maintenance".
All we need to realize is that if we want to achieve true peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait, and if we want the people of Taiwan to truly live and work in peace and contentment, the only bright road is to return to the embrace of the motherland. There is no other way. Those calls on the island to "maintain the current status quo across the Taiwan Strait" are all to "delay and wait for change", but they are wrong. The Taiwan issue arises from the weakness and chaos of the nation, and will surely be resolved with the national rejuvenation , cross-strait reunification is the general trend and the aspiration of the people!
