Vice Foreign Minister Le Yucheng attended a forum in Beijing on the 18th and mentioned the current situation in China, the United States and Taiwan in his speech. Le Yucheng said: As long as the Taiwan side continues to engage in "Taiwan independence" and cause separatism, it will be sooner or later that its so-called "countries with diplomatic relations" will return to zero.
Le Yucheng's remarks show that the mainland is full of self-confidence, and this is also the first time that the top level of the ministry of foreign affairs has mentioned that taiwan's "countries with diplomatic relations" will be cleared sooner or later. Proceeding from its position of strength, the mainland does have the confidence to be confident. In recent years, Taiwan has restarted the so-called "diplomatic war" with the mainland, and the result has been a complete failure, and the mainland media and non-governmental organizations often mention that they want to clear Taiwan's "countries with diplomatic relations."
On the 9th of last month, Nicaragua announced that it would sever "diplomatic relations" with Taiwan, becoming the eighth "country to sever diplomatic relations" under Tsai Ing-wen's tenure, leaving only 14 countries with "diplomatic relations" in Taiwan.
Seeing that Taiwan's "countries with diplomatic relations" have been cut off one by one, Grossman, a senior defense analyst at the "RAND Corporation," a senior defense analyst at the US think tank "RAND Corporation," submitted a book entitled "Nikkei Asia" on the 23rd of last month, suggesting that Taiwan "draw salaries from the bottom of the cauldron" and take the initiative to sever all "diplomatic relations." Grossman believes that Taiwan has no chance of winning the "war of diplomatic relations" and that taking the initiative to clear the country can free Taiwan, and then focus on the really important places, deepen unofficial ties with large and medium-sized countries, and thus weaken the "mainland suppression." Grossman's views are certainly unlikely to be accepted by the Taiwan authorities.
The rise of the mainland is unstoppable, its influence in the international community is getting bigger and bigger, the number of "countries with diplomatic relations" in Taiwan is getting smaller and smaller, and it is not impossible that the last one is not there.
What would happen if one day Taiwan did not have a single "country with diplomatic relations"? An article in "Today's Weekly" said last month that, to put it bluntly, it is what would happen without friends, and it would be almost like that without "countries with diplomatic relations." At that time, Taiwan will become a complete "marginalized person in the world."
