Biden avoided the issue of arms sales to Taiwan at the Sino-US summit, but now announced that he will continue to do so, raising questions about the US position on arming Taiwan. Does this mean that the United States will go further and further down the road of arming the Taiwan region?How did China respond to this?
As one of the key issues in the international political arena, the Taiwan issue has touched the interests and concerns of many parties. In recent years, with the breakthrough of the blue and white parties, the election situation on the island has gradually become clear. At present, there are three groups of candidates on the island, among which the KMT's "Hou Zhao Pei" group has a significantly higher support rate than the People's Party's "Ke Wu Pei" group. However, the competition between the "Hou Zhao Pei" combination and the combination of Lai Qingde and Xiao Meiqin is also very fierce. The combination of Lai Ching-te and Hsiao Mei-qin is currently in the lead, but their combination, known as the "double independence pair", could push Taiwan into a war-torn situation if they win next year's leadership election.
Lai Ching-tak and Hsiao Mei-qin tried to stabilize the middle voters in the election, claiming that they would not clash with the mainland in order to gain voters' support. However, at the same time, they also declared that they would not return to the old path of the "one-China policy", and this contradictory statement revealed the true face of the authorities.
In response to the "double independence combination", Chen Binhua, spokesman for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, said at a press conference that the "double independence combination" is actually a "double poison combination", which will only bring harm to the compatriots on the island, the situation in the Taiwan Strait, and Taiwan's future. Chinese mainland's understanding of this false propaganda method of the *** authorities not only reminds the *** authorities and the "** forces, but also foreshadows the fate of Lai Qingde and Xiao Meiqin." This statement shows that the moment of cross-strait reunification will not be too far away, and Lai and Xiao will certainly pay the price for their actions.
In addition, there was also a bombshell news at the press conference, that is, the United States ** Biden has announced that it will continue to fight against Taiwan *** However, it is ironic that Biden actually claimed that this is to ensure Taiwan's "self-defense capability". In fact, Taiwan is China's inherent territory, and the PLA has the responsibility to defend Taiwan's security. The Taiwan issue involves China's internal affairs and has nothing to do with the United States. This argument of the US side is obviously untenable, which shows that the US position on the Taiwan issue has not fundamentally changed.
Biden avoided arms sales to Taiwan at the China-US summit and did not respond positively to the Taiwan issue. Although he reiterated the US commitment to oppose unilateral changes to the status quo in the Taiwan Strait and adhere to the "one-China policy", he did not specify how to implement these commitments. Half a month has passed, and we have not waited for the US side to take actual actions to fulfill its commitments, but we have learned that the US side will continue arms sales to Taiwan, which shows that the United States does not want to abandon its erroneous policy of "using Taiwan to contain China" at all.
China's Taiwan Affairs Office has advised the US side not to say one thing and do another, warning that "seeking independence by force" is bound to bring about its own death. Chinese mainland has enough confidence to demand that the United States stop arming the Taiwan region, and if the United States obstructs China's reunification, the two sides of the strait will take countermeasures. China has risen, and sooner or later the United States will have to make a compromise on the Taiwan issue.
At the China-US summit, the Chinese side once again reiterated at the highest level that the Taiwan issue is a red line that cannot be crossed between China and the United States, and expressed a more direct and tough stance than during the Bali meeting. The highest level of the Chinese side made it clear that the US must implement the commitments made at the Bali meeting, make it clear that it will not support "the first concrete action, and stop interfering in China's internal affairs." The Chinese side has also sent a strong message at the highest level that China will inevitably be reunified, and whether or not the United States obstructs it, the two sides of the strait will eventually be reunified. This statement once again demonstrates the determination of the Chinese people to resolutely safeguard the territorial integrity of the country.
However, at the Sino-US summit talks, Biden did not respond positively to the Taiwan issue. He mentioned maintaining the commitments made at the Bali meeting, opposing unilateral changes to the status quo in the Taiwan Strait, and adhering to the "one-China policy." But he did not specify how these commitments would be implemented to justify not supporting,** which is not in line with expectations. Although Biden claims that he will continue to oppose Taiwan, this can only show that the US position on the Taiwan issue has not changed.
China-US relations are one of the most important bilateral relations in the world today, and the two countries have extensive room for convergence of interests and cooperation in many fields. However, on the Taiwan issue, the differences and controversies between China and the United States are also very obvious.
Although China's development has been disturbed and influenced by external factors, China has always adhered to the one-China principle and "peaceful reunification."
1. The principle of "one country, two systems" is committed to safeguarding national reunification and peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait.
On the Taiwan issue, China has the confidence and determination. China has risen to become the world's second largest economy and a powerful military force, and will no longer tolerate any external forces interfering in China's internal affairs and harming national interests. The determination of the Chinese people to resolutely safeguard the territorial integrity of the country is indestructible.
The future development of China-US relations needs to be built on the basis of mutual respect, equality and mutual benefit. The United States must recognize China's core interests on the Taiwan issue, stop interfering in China's internal affairs, and take concrete actions to prove that it does not support "** The two sides should resolve differences through dialogue and consultation, and promote the sustained and stable development of China-US relations on the basis of mutual respect and win-win cooperation."
In the current complex and volatile international situation, the cooperation between China and the United States far outweighs the differences. The two countries should strengthen strategic communication, enhance mutual trust, deepen cooperation, jointly address global challenges, and promote world peace and prosperity. Only through cooperation and dialogue can we achieve the goal of peaceful reunification between the two sides of the strait.
