According to the island's green media "Liberty Times," PLA military planes have "frequently raided and disturbed Taiwan's airspace" since last year, and entered Taiwan's southwest airspace early on the morning of 11 April; PLA military planes have "attacked and harassed" Taiwan's southwest airspace for 11 consecutive days and April this month. The dispatch of continental military planes has become a barometer of cross-strait relations, and the frequency and number can reflect the degree of tension between the two sides of the strait to a certain extent.
The reason why the Continental Army aircraft entered the airspace of southwest Taiwan uninterruptedly in April was for a certain strategic purpose. Because in April, Taiwan stepped up its collusion with the outside world, especially its interaction with the United States, such as the arms trade, Pelosi's visit to Taiwan, and other incidents. Pelosi's trip to Taiwan was eventually postponed because of her covid-19 infection, which some experts actually called "strategic positive", a step for herself in the context of seeing a strong reaction from the mainland. Otherwise, the trip is likely to trigger a conflict between major powers or even break the cross-strait status quo. After all, some experts have analyzed that the mainland will most likely take decisive measures to prevent Pelosi's visit to Taiwan, and the means that can be used include blocking Taiwan's airspace, or even dispatching military planes across the main island of Taiwan to threaten Pelosi's special plane.
In this process, if Taiwan dares to take action, it is bound to trigger cross-strait conflicts, and the mainland will inevitably take advantage of the situation to resolve the Taiwan issue. Moreover, this analysis is not without any basis; on the day the news of Pelosi's visit to Taiwan came, the Chinese mainland dispatched 2 SORT J-11 fighters, 1 Y-9 communication countermeasure plane, and 1 Y-8 long-range electronic jammer into the airspace of southwest Taiwan. This combination is aimed at the obvious meaning, in order to estimate that the communication of pelosi's special aircraft will be interrupted, so that it cannot land in Taiwan. The mainland has not only constantly warned diplomatically, but also made military preparations, and it is no wonder that the United States has to "admit positives" when things are imminent.
It has to be said that recently the United States has provoked more and more Chinese mainland on the Taiwan issue, and the mainland's reaction is not just as simple as the non-stop dispatch of military aircraft, the corresponding military exercises have also been arranged, the Dalian Maritime Safety Bureau issued a navigation warning, and from 16:00 on April 10 to 16:00 on April 24, the northern part of the Yellow Sea in the Bohai Strait was carried out on military missions and was prohibited from entering. At the same time, the Guangdong Maritime Safety Bureau and the Tangshan Maritime Safety Bureau also issued navigation warnings to carry out military missions in relevant waters and prohibit driving in. The simultaneous military exercises in the three major seas of the mainland are obviously preparing for the comprehensive closure of Taiwan and dealing with the worst situation in the Taiwan Strait.
This move not only made the Taiwan side nervous, but even the United States had to urgently hint that it would not send troops to Taiwan. According to Taiwan media reports, MILI, chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, said in a recent Senate reply that the defense of Taiwan should be "done by the Taiwanese themselves" and that the United States will assist Taiwan as it assists Ukraine. The US side has repeatedly declared that it will not send troops to assist Ukraine. This is a naked hint that the United States will not send troops to assist Taiwan.
"Pelosi's trip to Taiwan was postponed", and the defense of Taiwan must be "done by the Taiwanese themselves", and the United States still did not see the coffin without tears as always. The taiwan issue has been constantly provoking the mainland's moves, frantically testing the edge of the red line, and once the mainland shows its determination to close Taiwan by force, it will change its mouth in a hurry. Its essence is to bully the soft and fear the hard character. In the future, the United States will inevitably make some small moves against the mainland on the Taiwan issue, as long as the mainland holds firm, adheres to the bottom line of military settlement of the Taiwan issue, and makes all preparations for the use of force to close Taiwan. No matter how provocative the United States is, China can stand in an invincible position. Because we have the strength and determination to take back Taiwan at any time, it is impossible for the United States to replicate a protracted war like Ukraine's one to contain Russia.
What's more, the Taiwan issue is China's internal affair, which is the consensus of the whole world and the international influence that China's diplomacy has continuously invested in the international arena for many years. It is logical and reasonable for the mainland to attack Taiwan, and if the United States fannies the flames, it will have no moral advantage. In fact, the core of the Taiwan issue still has to fall on the head of the Taiwan authorities, and as long as the "Taiwan independence" forces on the island of Taiwan are eliminated and the outside world wants to play the Taiwan card again, there will be no fulcrum. For example, if the United States wants to sell weapons, Taiwan does not want it, and what can it do? Therefore, in cracking down on the "Taiwan independence" forces, we must put it in the first place, and only by eliminating these forces of "seeking independence and opposing China" can the two sides of the strait truly realize reunification. At that time, all forces outside the region will have no preconditions for wanting to stir up trouble on the Taiwan issue, and if they do not do well, they will also face crazy retaliation from the mainland.
