According to Taiwan's "Central News Agency", the US Senate passed the 2023 " National Defense Authorization Act " on the 15th, which includes providing US$10 billion in "free military aid" in Taiwan in the next five years, and requesting to accelerate the processing of Taiwan's military purchase requests. The bill will be submitted to White House next, and will take effect after the signing of US President Biden .
From the details of the bill, it includes the following control points: First, the "Foreign Military Financing" plan in the bill, which authorizes that the United States will provide up to US$2 billion in free military aid in Taiwan every year from 2023 to 2027, and also authorizes to provide up to US$2 billion in FMF loans in Taiwan, with a repayment period of 12 years. In addition, the bill also authorizes the president to use "presidential appropriation rights" to misappropriate defense materials or services worth up to $1 billion worth of defense from the U.S. Department of Defense every year to Taiwan. This is equivalent to giving Taiwan the status of a super cash machine, which can obtain $5 billion in military aid from the United States every year, and in one breath, it will be equivalent to giving Taiwan $25 billion in military aid in the next five years. This is simply a big spoil.
Second, the bill also authorizes the creation of a so-called "regional response armament database" for the Taiwan military that includes ammunition and other suitable defense weapons, and grants Taiwan's so-called "to be able to obtain US 'excess defense materials' first". What does this mean? It means that Taiwan is directly included in the US logistics and equipment support system in the Western Pacific Theater. It is also that the US military's equipment is directly coming to Taiwan. In fact, it is the US military coming to Taiwan. The specific approach is to set up a military warehouse of the US military in Taiwan. When the fight starts, the Taiwan military can just extract military equipment from it. As for why this is done, the United States should refer to the so-called experience of the Ukrainian conflict and believes that Taiwan is an island. When it comes to fighting, transportation aid is not as convenient as Ukrainian transportation aid, so it is better to plan ahead.
Third, give priority to and accelerate the processing of Taiwan’s military purchase requests and inviting Taiwan to participate in the “2024 Pacific Rim Military Exercise” and other content. There is actually no need to say more about this... The US military is not to mention that there are so many military equipment to sell to Taiwan, but it has reached the level of dizziness. Let's give a few examples. The three armies in Taiwan now have plans to buy large equipment from the United States:
The army bought 108 M1A2SEP2 tanks from the United States, as well as M109A7 self-propelled howitzers and M142 long-range rocket launchers, and even the United States dares to sell PrSM precision-guided missiles to Taiwan. It is even more crazy than the Ukrainian battlefield. The Air Force plans to buy 66 F-16V fighters from the United States, and compared with the improvement of the existing F-16A/B fighter jets to F -16V plan. This time, the 66 F-16Vs that the Taiwan Army plans to buy in are the latest batch, and they go directly to Block70, which is more advanced than the F-16I sold to Israel and the F-16E sold to the UAE. It has super strong air-to-ground strike performance. The Taiwan Army is confidently ready to use it to fight against J-20; the Navy is even more generous. With a wave of money, he bought hundreds of "harpoon" anti-ship missiles from the United States, intending to expand the existing shore guide and sea-forward brigade into a brigade to enhance the ability of sea-air interception and landing fleets. As for other joint training and equipment maintenance and support, there are too many projects, and countless.
So, with the United States passing this 2023 National Defense Authorization Act that includes "free military aid to Taiwan", it means that the trend of the United States causing trouble in the front line of Taiwan Strait is becoming more and more obvious, and it is getting closer and closer to us. However, this is not surprising. After all, we have said more than once before. The United States has been a bit successful in its overall operation on the issue of Ukraine, and even has some cruel experience, that is: choosing a core interest in a big country, such as Ukraine. Ukraine is related to Russia's geopolitical security, which is a geopolitical interest that Russia must never give up; the same is true for Taiwan, Taiwan is also related to our geopolitical security, or the great cause of our national rejuvenation, and it is also a geopolitical interest that we must never give up.
After choosing the core interests of a big country, it then conducts corresponding political manipulation. Of course, this kind of political manipulation also has prerequisites. At least, this country or region must have a certain degree of organization. A country similar to a loose sand like Saudi is not good. Ukraine is very good. The industrial countries of the former Soviet Union have a good organizational degree, and Taiwan is also good. After all, it is one of the four Asian dragons in , and there is also a foundation. At the same time, the selected country or region must also listen to the United States, otherwise the United States will ask you to commit suicide. Will you really commit suicide? Fortunately, Ukraine is such a stupid master. The United States asked him to commit suicide. He really dared to provoke Russia. Taiwan was at least a little independent before and knew that Americans could use it, but it was absolutely impossible for Americans to ask you to commit suicide. But now the master is getting more and more anxious and can't take care of so many things.
In short, choose the core geopolitical interests of a big country, and then choose a scapegoat to provoke this big country, forcing the big country to take action. After taking action, the United States will give guns, cannons and weapons. The scapegoat will be responsible for providing consumables to waste blood on this big country. The sanctions that the United States should add to you later to see if it can consume the big country and drive all the funds and talents to the United States. This is the political manipulation formed by the Americans on the Ukraine issue. We call this model of action of the United States the "Ukrainian model". Now, this "Ukrainian model" seems to be planning to copy it to Taiwan intact.
and what is even more cruel is... This "Ukrainian model" is not important for the United States to win or not, but the longer the conflict time, the better. The longer the conflict time, the more profit the United States can reap, including the sanctions that can be added to you, and the resources and talents that can be taken away are taken away. So we see that in Ukraine, the one who doesn't want the conflict to end is the United States the least. However, it doesn't matter how many people died in Ukraine have died. The United States is a number for the United States.
And this result of "it doesn't matter if you die, just delay the conflict time" will lead to a result in the US military aid to Taiwan, that is: military aid to Taiwan is mainly about defeating wars, and try to delay the resistance of Taiwan as much as possible. After all, if you give Taiwan various advanced military equipment, then you will never have any thoughts after this wave of war. But if you fire a gun to a Taiwanese, there will be javelin missiles or other things, and then scatter people in small cities along the coast of Taiwan, and fight street battles with the troops of the Chinese People's Liberation Army ashore, then is this war still over? The terrain of Taiwan is an eternal street battle hell. I don't know how many Taiwanese people will die, but how much life we have to pay for the People's Liberation Army, and how long the conflict will last to complete the task of liberating Taiwan. In fact, there are think tanks within the United States that have already proposed that Taiwan should not buy any advanced weapons. It should buy javelins, stingers, machine guns, , build bunkers throughout the country, and be soldiers in the whole country, try to delay time. What does this mean? It means that the United States is using Taiwan as consumables.
So, on the Taiwan issue, the United States is increasingly showing the savage, cruel and cunning nature of anti-human bandits. For us, we are all Chinese. How to deal with the Taiwan issue really requires great wisdom...
