After the deterioration of relations between Lithuania and China, Lithuania, which had paid a huge price, was full of regrets, and it was not expected that at this time, the discordant voices in Slovenia were exposed.
Another Lithuania?
Slovenian Prime Minister Jansa has publicly declared that he is communicating with Taiwan and may follow Lithuania's example by establishing a so-called "representative office" and has wildly said that China's counterattack against Lithuania "will not frighten" Slovenia.
Why Slovenia?
Slovenia is a European country with a total population of about 2 million, close to Developed countries such as Hungary and Austria, and its geographical location is not as sensitive as Poland's standing between Russia and Europe, relying on the help of the European Union and neighboring countries, the small life is not bad, and the exchange with China is normal, so Yansha suddenly stepped on the "there is only one China in the world" Red Line, which is quite shocking.
What is this picture?
There are several reasons: first, Germany as Slovenia's largest import and export partner, some of the statements of the current German government have an impact on Jansa; second, due to historical reasons, Slovenia and Lithuania belong to countries that are actively moving closer to European and American countries; third, the current government's support rate has now fallen to 19%, and there is no lack of reasons for Yangsha's "establishment" to engage in personal political speculation; fourth, under the impact of the epidemic, Europe's economy has suffered a serious crisis, and it is not enough to rely on the EU alone, and it wants to come to some extra money - Taiwan is trying to win over Lithuania. The lure of $1.2 billion + cooperation in the semiconductor field was promised.
Yang Sha was moved, so he spoke in vain.
But what is quite interesting is that the news that Slovenia is striving to become an "anti-China pioneer" came from India's state-run DD India television station, and under the conscious and targeted questions and words, Jansa gave the above answers. Therefore, after knowing the fate of Lithuania, the Indian media deliberately pushed Yangsha behind the back, maliciously provoking waves and stirring up the situation.
Yang Sha's pro-Taiwan remarks immediately aroused the great concern of the Taiwan authorities and the Taiwan media, which were shaken by Lithuania, and the Taiwan media hyped up that this was another "diplomatic breakthrough" by the Taiwan authorities, obviously using Yang Sha's words and deeds as a fig leaf after being punched in the face.
"This is the prime minister's personal position!"
Slovenia's prime minister threatened to support Taiwan and criticized China for exerting economic pressure on Lithuania, clearly offending China. Although he may have wanted to unite with EU member states, such a move to make the country his political bet was immediately met with strong opposition within Slovenia.
"This is the personal position of the Prime Minister of Slovenia and does not represent the Republic of Slovenia."
Jansha's erroneous statement on Taiwan-related issues and the solemn attitude expressed by the Chinese Foreign Ministry on this issue have caused a large number of politicians in Slovenia to oppose it in unison.
In response to the Prime Minister's inappropriate remarks, other Slovenian parties called for a special session. Nemek, a member of the Slovenian Foreign Policy Committee, stressed that "such remarks may harm Slovenia's interests and have an impact on cooperation between the two countries.".
Slovenian mp Prebir expressed outrage at the prime minister's remarks, saying that "this will only have a negative impact on Slovenia and create tensions with China" and "can only show that he is a provocateur, a populist, not a politician!"
Burgerez, a member of the European Parliament and former speaker of the Slovenian Parliament, unceremoniously pointed out that the prime minister's statement was "a rude and crazy privatization of foreign policy".
China's strong determination and ability to defend national sovereignty and territorial integrity have been reflected in Lithuania, and Yangsha's attempt to "find another way" to take the country as his own political bet will inevitably not succeed, nor will it be recognized by him domestically.
