However,TaiwanThe authorities hit back, claiming that the mainland's actions were unfair and calling it ".Economycoercion". However,Taiwan authoritiesThere was a serious mistake in their response, they questioned the impartiality of the mainland's ** investigation, but ignored their own restrictions on mainland products.

There is no doubt that the mainland's move sends a clear signal: any challenge"."The actions of the stance will be resolutely pushed back. Against this background, Kuomintang candidate Hou Youyi took up the opposition"The flag, appealTaiwanThe authorities give up"."Position, communication with the mainland, this will become one of the important differences between the Kuomintang and ***.
According to the announcement of the Ministry of Finance of the People's Republic of China, the Tariff Commission has decided to suspend the 12 tariff items against Taiwan from January 1, 2024Tariffsconcessions. Behind this decision, there is:TaiwanThe long-standing existence of discriminatory ** restrictions imposed by the region on mainland products. According to theBoth sides of the straitEconomyAccording to the relevant provisions of the Cooperation Framework Agreement (ECFA), the mainland has decided to suspend some of its relations with Taiwan under the ECFA framework after thorough studyTariffsPreferential.
However, this is not targeted by the mainlandTaiwanunilateral action, but rightTaiwanThe necessary response taken by the authorities to the restrictions on mainland products for a long time. Since *** came to power,TaiwanThe region has imposed restrictive measures on 2,509 products on the mainland, which is the real act of barrier and hinders the normal economic and trade exchanges between the two sides of the strait. In contrast, continental pairsTaiwanThe region's ** investigation is fair and transparent, with sufficient factual basis, and there is no so-called "unfair" practice.
The suspension of 12 tariff concessions against Taiwan this time shows that the mainland is rightTaiwanThe concern and determination of the region. Although only 12 tariff items are included, the actual impact is very large. The mainland told this moveTaiwanpeople,"."Peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait are incompatible, and the authorities continue to insist on it.""The mainland will not tolerate and condone it.
In the face of the decision of the mainland,Taiwan authoritiesQuickly countered by claiming that the mainland's move was".Economycoercion" and accuse it of being unfair. However,Taiwan authoritiesThere are serious errors and contradictions in the response.
First of all,Taiwan authoritiesQuestioning the fairness of the mainland's investigation into Taiwan, calling it "unfair". However, the facts are just the opposite, and the mainland's ** investigation is fair and transparent, and there is a sufficient factual basis. In contrast, the restrictions on mainland products since taking office are the real unfair behavior, and the obstruction of normal cross-strait economic and trade exchanges for the sake of its own political interests should reflect on and correct this mistake.
Secondly,Taiwan authoritiescalled the measures of the mainland "".Economycoercion", which is complete nonsense. According to theBoth sides of the straitEconomyCooperation Framework Agreement, the mainland has been givingTaiwanarea in large quantitiesTariffsPreferential. Taiwanese businessmen, Taiwanese enterprises and Taiwanese farmers have also enjoyed tangible benefits under the ECFA framework. The reason why the mainland has suspended some of its products to TaiwanTariffsConcessions are necessary measures to safeguard the interests of enterprises, and are completely reasonable and legal. ** The authorities' unscrupulous words and smear behavior have exposed their weakness and also shown that the mainland's move has hit the mark.""The sore spot.
Third,Taiwan authoritiesHe called for the solution of the problem under the WTO mechanism, but ignored the fact that the mainland has always complied with it in the economic and trade fieldswtoRules of fact. In fact, it was the authorities who really broke the rules, and they insisted on not complying with the relevant ECFA regulations, which led to serious obstacles to the implementation of the agreement. Under such circumstances, it is reasonable and legitimate for the mainland to take necessary measures to safeguard the interests of enterprises, and there is nothing to blame. ** The authorities' proposal to resolve the issue under the WTO mechanism is likely to be just an attempt to stall for time and continue to argue.
Fourth,Taiwan authoritiesClaims that the mainland's measures are rightTaiwan's economyThe impact is limited, which is completely misunderstood and forcibly made up. Although only 12 tariff items were suspended this timeTariffsconcessions, but the actual impact is very large. The reason why the mainland is only partially suspendedTariffsThe main consideration for concessions is the vital interests of the Taiwan compatriots, and if they really "go all out," the authorities will be powerless to resist it. This moveTaiwanThe population sent a clear message that the mainland would not tolerate any challenge"."Position acts. Especially in the context of the upcoming 2024 elections, the ** authorities are bent on going their own way, colluding with external forces to provoke, hindering the resolution of related issues, lettingTaiwanPeople are harmed, and it will inevitably be affectedTaiwanPublic support.
Against this background, Kuomintang candidate Hou Youyi took up the opposition"The flag, appealTaiwanThe authorities give up"."position, and communicate with the mainland. This will be one of the important differences between the Kuomintang and ***.
Hou Youyi's position is not only against ".It is all the more necessary to adhere to the general interests of the nation on major historical issues, stand on the right side, and truly do itTaiwanCompatriots andTaiwanConsideration of the future of the region.

Taiwan authoritiesIt reacted wrongly to this, accusing the mainland of being unfair, but ignoring its own restrictions on mainland products. In addition,Taiwan authoritiesClaiming that the mainland measures are rightTaiwan's economyThe impact is limited, but the impact is suspendedTariffsThe actual impact of concessions is blind.
