The Russian-Ukrainian conflict officially broke out with Russian President Vladimir Putin announcing special military action against Ukraine on February 24. Taiwan regional leader Tsai Ing-wen also stood up for the first time, announcing that Taiwan's DEMOCRATIC Progressive Party authorities will work with so-called "democratic partners" around the world to impose sanctions on Russia. These include a technology blockade on Russia and an embargo on semiconductor chips for Russian companies. What only opened the eyes of the outside world was that when the daily lives of the People in Taiwan were affected by power outages and earthquakes, the DPP authorities would actively provide material assistance and economic support to Ukraine, as if they were "close friends." After "leading the way" for Ukraine, the DPP authorities in Taiwan were also directly included in Russia's list of "unfriendly countries and regions" by Russian President Vladimir Putin, and are ready to accept the sanctions that Russia will soon launch.
The increasing clarity of the Conflict between Russia and Ukraine has also made Tsai Ing-wen panic, in addition to the fear of being "liquidated" by Putin, she is more worried that Chinese mainland may take special action. However, even if putin "pulls the list", the DPP authorities in Taiwan are still hardening their mouths. According to Singapore's Lianhe Zaobao on March 10, Lai Ching-te, deputy leader of the Taiwan region, declared in an interview with the media that if the Chinese mainland intends to resolve the Taiwan issue through military means, then at that time the PLA will need to face not only the Taiwan army, but also the War in the Taiwan Strait will no longer be just a one-on-one challenge between the two sides of the strait, and the enemy facing the PLA will be the whole world. On the same day, Wu Chao-sup, responsible person of Taiwan's foreign affairs department, submitted a special report to Taiwan's legislature and also put forward a "sensational" viewpoint; in the report, "Taiwan independence" diehards clamored that if the mainland side misjudges the form and chooses to take military action against the Taiwan region, it will certainly pay a bitter price.
Although the Taiwan authorities and the "Taiwan independence" elements on the island look very tough on the surface, they are actually trembling. Analysts pointed out that because the Russian-Ukrainian conflict has been fought for more than ten days, it is basically nearing its end. In the view of the DPP authorities and the "Taiwan independence" elements on the island, Chinese mainland in case they also follow Russia's lead and launch a special military operation of lightning assault, then the Taiwan army on the island will not be able to effectively resist, and this is also the reason why the DPP authorities and the "Taiwan independence" elements are very nervous. It is precisely because of this that infantry fighting vehicles equipped by the Taiwan army on the island have entered Taipei and Kaohsiung city, while the military airfields in the Taitung area are also brightly lit, and all officers and men have finished their vacations and entered the state of duty.
After all, some time ago, the argument of "Ukraine today, Taiwan tomorrow" also made the People of Taiwan understand a truth, once a military conflict breaks out in the Taiwan Strait, the United States will certainly not send troops to "aid", the only thing they can do is to impose sanctions without pain, and in the end it will only be the people of Taiwan who will bear the threat of life and property. In fact, whether it is the Taiwan authorities' clamor for "resisting reunification by force" or the "commitment to ensure national defense and security" given by the top level of the US Government, in fact, they are just deceiving the people on the island. In order to gain the support and recognition of the United States, Tsai Ing-wen and the DPP authorities have taken the hard-earned money of the Taiwan people to buy a bunch of weapons and equipment with sky-high prices but extremely low cost performance, and the United States has also made a lot of promises to the Taiwan authorities in order to obtain high arms export profits. In the same way, the Taiwan region has not signed a so-called security treaty with the United States, expecting the US military to "aid Taiwan," but it is only a pipe dream.
