The cross-strait talks on March 3 lasted 75 minutes, and although no comprehensive consensus was reached, a preliminary consensus was reached on the payment of compensation. Behind this meeting was the tragedy of the brutal enforcement of the law by Taiwan's coast guard department, which led to the unfortunate death of two mainland fishermen.
The Dispute over Compensation: Liability and Title.
The parties are at odds on the issue of compensation, with the focus on the nature of compensation. The mainland claims compensation, accusing the Taiwan Strait Patrol Department of being at fault; Taiwan, on the other hand, tends to call it a consolation payment, trying to reduce responsibility. This ambiguity is not only about money, but also about morality and responsibility.
The mainland demands that the truth be made public, an apology and accountability be held accountable. These demands are reasonable and reasonable. However, the Taiwan authorities have failed to make a substantive response and have even tried to cover up their mistakes.
The US military's "military training" has aroused heated discussions.
At the same time, the Taiwan authorities have reported that there is a "military training" of US special forces in the Kinmen area, which has aroused widespread concern. Behind this move is another heated discussion and concern about the situation in the Taiwan Strait.
Opportunities for military confrontation and cooperation.
In recent years, the mainland's handling of the Taiwan issue has become increasingly severe, and the involvement of the US military has added new uncertainties to the Taiwan issue. How to find a balance between military confrontation and cooperation has become a major challenge at present.
Seek common ground while reserving differences and promote peace.
On issues of common concern in the Taiwan Strait, consultation and cooperation have always been the key to resolving differences. Only through rational dialogue and pragmatic cooperation can the two sides find consensus and build stability and harmony, and we hope that the two sides will resolve their differences with an open mind and jointly promote the process of peace and development.
