Recently, a report released by the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), a Washington foreign policy think tank, has attracted widespread attention from the international community. The report notes that the mainland may take some kind of precursor action before recovering Taiwan in order to exert pressure and put Taiwan in political and economic difficulties.
According to the report, the mainland may exert pressure through some kind of precursor action to put Taiwan in greater political and economic challenges. Such actions are considered sufficient to affect Taiwan's political landscape and economic stability, and cause further tension in the Taiwan Strait.
The report is based on the opinions of 52 U.S. experts, including academics, think-tank experts in a variety of fields. According to the report, 63% of experts believe that the United States may intervene in the mainland's actions to maintain stability in the Taiwan Strait region.
Experts said that if the mainland takes precursor actions to put pressure on Taiwan, it may lead to action by the United States. According to the report, the threshold for U.S. intervention in Taiwan may not be the landing of the People's Liberation Army on the island, but smaller actions, such as the mainland's isolation or blockade of the island.
The report also notes that if the mainland adopts military actions such as a naval blockade, it could further prompt the United States to take action. Nearly all of the experts surveyed (96 percent) said the United States would join the fight if the mainland used force to retake Taiwan.
With this report, we cannot help but worry about the future of the situation in the Taiwan Strait. Despite calls for dialogue and cooperation to resolve the issue, the consequences would be dire if the situation spirals out of control. We hope that all parties will remain calm and work together to maintain peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait. At the same time, we also call on the United States to act prudently in handling the Taiwan Strait issue and avoid triggering a greater crisis.
