The reunification of the two sides of the strait brooks no delay, and the reasons for this are thought-provoking
Why are there so many difficulties in realizing cross-strait reunification?
Taiwan and the mainland have the same roots, and the two sides of the Taiwan Strait will eventually be reunited. Achieving this goal as soon as possible will be of great benefit to the future development of the people on both sides of the strait. Reason 1: Taiwan's historical origins.
From a historical point of view, Taiwan has been China's territory since ancient times, as early as the Common Era, Sun Wu and Sui Dynasty of the Three Kingdoms sent people to Taiwan for development.
In addition, "Linhai Tuzhi" is the earliest work to record the history of Taiwan in China, which was born more than 1,700 years ago. Reason 2: The benefits of reunifying the two sides of the strait as soon as possible. Cross-strait reunification is not only conducive to enhancing the sense of national identity, but also conducive to promoting cross-strait economic and cultural development.
Therefore, realizing cross-strait reunification at an early date is beneficial to the people on both sides of the strait.
Yizhou mentioned in the Linhai Soil Chronicles is present-day Taiwan, and from the records, Yizhou was relatively backward at that time, and it was not until the Song and Yuan dynasties that the Han population living in the Penghu area gradually grew.
Around the middle of the 12th century, the Song Dynasty placed Penghu under the jurisdiction of Jinjiang County in Quanzhou, Fujian. Since the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, China** has set up administrative institutions in Taiwan to strengthen its management.
There were Dutch colonists who tried to invade Taiwan, but the national hero Zheng Chenggong successfully recovered Taiwan and defended the motherland. The victory of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression in modern China led Japan to accept the Potsdam Proclamation and the Cairo Declaration and return Taiwan to China.
To sum up, Taiwan's return to the motherland is an inevitable trend of historical development.
China won the War of Resistance against Japan in 1945 and Japan was forced to surrender. However, the phenomenon of "revising textbooks" is now occurring in Taiwan, and this has undoubtedly had a negative impact on Taiwan's new generation.
Although the Kuomintang led by Chiang Kai-shek retreated to Taiwan in 1949 and carried out many reforms in the Taiwan region, it always adhered to the "Chinese ** view" and believed that Taiwan and Chinese mainland belonged to the same China.
Many older generations of Taiwanese recall the time when Chiang was in power, when their history textbooks were divided into two parts: domestic history and foreign history, when they still firmly believed that they were Chinese and could feel the magnificent rivers and mountains of the motherland in their books.
Even TV dramas at that time would use words like "we Chinese" to express their love for the motherland.
Taiwanese history, East Asian history (the part involving China) and foreign history.
The latest textbooks in Taiwan.
Taiwan's textbook is only four pages long, less than 2,000 words long and outlines China's long history from the Shang Dynasty to the Sui Dynasty. However, this glorious history of prosperity that has influenced Asian civilization has been deliberately skipped.
Next, we will talk about Taiwan's ruling party, the current leader Tsai Ing-wen, who is a personal descendant of the late leader *** and deeply influenced by his ideas. Under her leadership, the Taiwan authorities have not promoted cross-strait reunification, but have close ties with the United States and are even considered an "ally" of the United States.
We can elaborate on the relationship between Taiwan and the United States from two aspects: First, the frequent visits to Taiwan by senior US leaders.
The visit should be cancelled immediately, not postponed.
China's spokesman Zhao Lijian expressed China's opposition to Pelosi's visit to Taiwan with a strong attitude, and although there is no news about Pelosi's visit to Taiwan, the United States has not stopped provoking and sent six U.S. congressmen to Taiwan for a two-day so-called "visit".
These include statements such as "we support Taiwan" and "China will pay the price", which are extremely irresponsible. Although China has made clear its opposition to any form of official U.S.-Taiwan exchanges, the U.S. has repeatedly challenged China's bottom line and sent the wrong signal to "** elements about how important they are."
Menendez, chairman of the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee, led five U.S. congressmen on their second trip to Taiwan, which involved U.S. arms sales to Taiwan. Since the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United States, US arms sales to Taiwan have been a topic of discussion, and in recent years, they have become more active.
During the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union, the United States once gave Taiwan a value of 2$800 million**, followed by $6 billion worth of F-16 fighter jets and Harpoon missiles.
According to statistics, in the 90s of the last century, Taiwan became the second largest exporter of the United States, and it also transferred some high and new technologies and carried out military cooperation to its offensive ones, such as "Patriot" air defense missiles and "Stinger" portable air defense missiles.
This phenomenon has been even more pronounced during the Trump era.
During Trump's tenure, the method of arms sales to Taiwan has been changed, and it has been changed to a method of small quantities and large batches. This will not only reduce the sensitivity of arms sales to Taiwan and normalize them, but will also enable a better understanding of Taiwan's military needs and improve the efficiency of arms sales.
The first batch of arms sales to Taiwan in 2017 included HARM anti-radiation missiles, joint distance** air-to-surface missiles and MK48 torpedoes, with a total value of more than $1.4 billion.
The HARM Anti-Radiation Missile, also known as the "Hamm" Anti-Radiation Missile, is an advanced ** designed for the U.S. Air Force and Navy.
Recently, the arms sales of anti-submarine and anti-ship ** have been upgraded again, and the Mk40 heavy torpedo compartment, F-16 fighter accessories and parts, and the training of specialized personnel will be provided in the next arms sales.
And in 2019, more than $2.2 billion in arms sales have been confirmed, including MLA2T Abrams tanks. It is worth mentioning that the incumbent **Biden has made three "large-scale**" to the Taiwan region since he took office.
U.S. arms sales to Taiwan are an important factor affecting the situation in Taiwan"**"This is the importance of their confidence**. According to Taiwan's 2022 defense budget, the total amount is about NT$372.6 billion, most of which goes to the United States.
The total amount of US arms sales to Taiwan has exceeded $70 billion, which can be called the United States"Good son"。However, Tsai's approach only represents"**"The interests of the minority and the majority of the people on the island have not been safeguarded.
As a result, opposition is rampant on the island.
The People of Taiwan March, Hoping for Cross-Strait Harmony The people headed by Tsai Ing-wen are the "independence faction" on the island, while the people headed by General Gao Anguo can be called the "reunification faction."
Gao Anguo is a retired lieutenant general who once quit the Kuomintang because of ***, but he has always been loyal to the Kuomintang and loves the Chinese nation. When he blessed the centenary of the Communist Party of China, he said that Taiwan does not mean that "although there are a handful of ** groups in Taiwan, there are still thousands of overseas children who have the desire to return to the motherland."
His remarks expressed the ardent expectation of the older generation of the Kuomintang for returning to the motherland.
In the picture, we can see a general Gao Anguo and Hong Xiuzhu, a representative of the Kuomintang unification faction, both of whom firmly believe that the "92 consensus" should be adhered to and cooperation with the mainland should be strengthened.
Although the KMT's defeat in Taiwan's ruling power has not changed their pursuit of cross-strait peace and China's rejuvenation. However, under the suppression of Tsai Ing-wen, the situation of the pro-unification faction is becoming more and more difficult.
In order to realize their aspirations, it has become particularly important to quicken the pace of cross-strait reunification.
Hong Xiuzhu's criticism of not recognizing the "92 Consensus" is justified, and this is not beneficial to Taiwan's development. In addition, Chinese mainland has always been committed to completing the reunification of the motherland.
Now China's international environment and international status are very favorable for China, because we only need to focus on one adversary, and that is the United States. However, as the current Russia-Ukraine conflict continues, the United States will not give up its support for Russia.
In such a situation, if China were to regain Taiwan in both the Asian and European theaters at the same time, even the powerful United States might feel overwhelmed.
China and Russia are the only two countries in the world with a "triad" strategic nuclear strike capability, and their relationship is far beyond that of ordinary rivals.
Unlike the Ukraine issue, China's Taiwan issue is not a geopolitical dispute, but China's internal affair, in which no external forces have the right to interfere.
China's military strength is constantly improving, and it has the full ability to carry out "armed reunification" with Taiwan. Taking a certain brigade of the 73rd Group Army in the Eastern Theater as an example, it has conducted a number of joint military exercises along the southeast coast to land on beaches, and has mastered this kind of training.
The exercise had a strong combat color, including artillery support and drone equipment to assault the rear.
The PLA's Eastern Theater launched fierce military exercises on the front line of the Fujian Sea, including a beach-grabbing landing exercise of amphibious combat vehicles, an actual combat exercise of Type 05 amphibious assault vehicles, and anti-aircraft missile training of various types of aircraft across the day and night.
These trainings not only demonstrate China's military strength, but also serve as a warning to the ** forces, if they continue to be arrogant, what awaits them will no longer be exercises, but real wars.
1.On the Taiwan Strait issue, most people hope that China can achieve reunification at an early date, but in the process of achieving this goal, we need to face the challenges of the United States and some other countries.
Therefore, we need to be cautious about this issue and not make any mistakes. 2.China has always been very cautious in the process of achieving reunification. As far as the Taiwan issue is concerned, we need to find the most prudent and comprehensive way to realize the reunification of the motherland at the lowest cost.
We want the world to know that what belongs to China, the Chinese people will take it back themselves. 3.China has been preparing for reunification and will do its utmost to take the treasure island home as soon as possible to achieve common prosperity.
We should stop the erroneous acts of the Taiwan authorities and the United States in a timely manner, otherwise we may pay a huge price. The rewritten copy retains the core idea of the original copy, emphasizing China's determination and cautiousness to achieve reunification, while also emphasizing that China will do its best to achieve reunification and will respond to any challenge.
