The war in Ukraine is fierce, the United States and NATO are fanning the flames; the island of Taiwan is in a miasma of smoke, and US President Biden not only sent the former chairman of the Joint People's Congress to visit Taiwan, but also Pompeo, who was sanctioned by China, accompanied by the traitor Yu Maochun, even ran to Taiwan to accept the award from Tsai Ing-wen, and even called on the United States to immediately "diplomatically recognize" Taiwan. The Australian Defense Ministry Of Defense, Who once threatened to send troops to participate in the conflict in the Taiwan Strait, recently told the media that once war breaks out in the Taiwan Strait, Australia will provide arms to Taiwan and arm the DPP authorities. Western politicians and the Tsai Ing-wen authorities have openly used the Ukraine crisis to step up their provocations and directly threaten China. But the problem is that Putin has taught the United States and other hegemonic interference forces a practical education lesson, and it is impossible not to undergo psychological changes.
Just when Russia and the West are fighting each other, and the Ukrainian president denounces the United States and NATO for being disunity, inaction, and courage, and dare not set up a no-fly zone in Ukraine, according to the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, the Australian Defense Ministry Darton recently told the media that once a war breaks out in the Taiwan Strait, the Australian Association will provide arms to Taiwan and arm the DPP authorities.
This person has always been an extreme anti-China element, and has previously declared that once a war breaks out in the Taiwan Strait, he will follow the United States to send troops to participate in the war. This time, taking advantage of the Ukrainian crisis, it also issued a direct threat to China. Mr. Dutton and his co-party, Patterson, chairman of the Australian Parliament's Joint Committee on Intelligence and Security, also said China should "learn a lesson" from Russia and not use force to change the status quo in the Taiwan Strait, which would have "complex results that China could not have imagined."
Taking advantage of the Ukraine crisis to step up preparations for intervention in the Taiwan Strait issue is not only the Australian defense minister with only 50,000 troops, but also senior U.S. air and sea generals. At a time when the Ukrainian president demanded that the United States set up a no-fly zone and the United States and NATO resolutely said no, the excuse for the US navy and air force to say "no" is still China and the Taiwan issue.
No, we don't go! U.S. "Defense News" said on the 4th that Admiral Lescher, deputy director of the U.S. Navy's Department of Operations, said that the U.S. Navy believes that China is still the "main threat" to the U.S. military, and the PLA has the "highest possibility" to take action against Taiwan in the 2020s, so the U.S. Navy must be prepared.
On the same day, U.S. Air Force Secretary Kendall made similar remarks, saying that despite the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, "the main challenge for the United States remains China." ”
From this point of view, our adversaries have stepped up preparations for a possible conflict in the Taiwan Strait against China, using the Ukrainian crisis as an example, and even explicitly used the current sanctions against Russia to threaten China. In this case, how we look at it, how to do it, we have to plan ahead, and it must be carried out now, the opponent will not wait for you to think slowly, swinging left and right!
The US "Foreign Policy" magazine issued an article on the 17th: If Russia invades Ukraine, sanction China
The first is the question of the spirit of struggle. "Imperialism and all reactionaries are paper tigers." Speaking on the Internet, Putin alone resists most of the world, which actually shows that world public opinion is still in the hands of the United States and hegemony, and japan and many other countries have followed the United States to impose extreme economic sanctions on Russia, and even closed their airspace and confiscated what they call "sacred and inviolable private property", basically taking advantage of fire and robbery, fishing in muddy waters, and providing weapons and equipment for Ukraine, and even encouraging their own citizens to participate in the Ukrainian International Legion and fight directly with Russia.
But after Russia issued two shouts, the Western world began to calm down. First, the Russian Foreign Ministry announced on March 2 that in view of the supply of weapons for Ukraine, Russia does not rule out an accident with NATO; second, Putin stressed on March 5 that any country that sets up a no-fly zone in Ukraine is to go to war with Russia. In response to this, senior White House officials even reflected: Is it too cruel to Russia?
From this point of view, the PLA must issue the sternest warning to all external interfering forces that try to get involved in China's internal affairs, and use shocking exercises to show annihilating power.
The second is the problem of the ability to struggle. We must not only be fully prepared for military battles, but also better prepared for political, economic, and diplomatic wars. Compared with Russia, the United States, Japan, Australia and other countries can obtain greater benefits by using robbery methods such as freezing funds, and the possibility of their risks can never be ignored. Although China's countermeasures are also more powerful, these Western politicians are "hooligans in the yard" who seem to fear only a devastating nuclear strike, otherwise it will be difficult to curb their bullying attempts.
For the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, we must also see a signal that Putin's tough attitude has played a crucial role, and it is precisely the three red lines drawn by Putin (Ukraine cannot join NATO, sanctions are equal to declaring war, and setting up no-fly zones is equal to war), especially the resolute action after the red line is drawn, which makes the United States and NATO fearful.
In fact, while the Taiwan issue is entirely China's own internal affair, and Australia's defense minister threatens China with Western sanctions from Russia, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation equates Dutton's approach with the West's supply of weapons to Ukraine. In addition, some Australian media believe that Dutton's statement has been "softened" than before, because he had previously claimed that if there is a war in the Taiwan Strait, Australia will send troops with the United States, but when asked about this matter, he said that he would make the decision that is most in line with Australia's national interests, saying that he just wants to protect Australia.
In fact, whether soft or hard, the pace of the United States and other Western politicians in splitting China has not stopped for a moment; US President Biden not only sent the former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to visit Taiwan, but also Pompeo, who was sanctioned by China, accompanied by the traitor Yu Maochun, even ran to Taiwan to accept Tsai Ing-wen's award, and even called on the United States to immediately "diplomatically recognize" Taiwan.
It can be seen from this that for the bullying group, we must take action, or Qin An often said a sentence: if you are weak, he will be crazy, if you are strong, he will be soft, and if you are hard, he will be instigated. The world needs a strong Russia and a hard China.
