Recently, the state security organs have carried out criminal detention and summons review of Yang Zhiyuan, a criminal suspect who has long been engaged in "Taiwan independence" separatist activities, on suspicion of separatism. According to reports, Yang Zhiyuan has long advocated "Taiwan independence" and established the "Taiwan National Party" on the island with the goal of promoting Taiwan to become a "sovereign state."
This is a heavy blow dealt by the mainland against the "Taiwan independence" elements on the island, and the mainland will continue to punish "Taiwan independence" according to law in the future, and will not miss a single one. Politicians on the island must take this as a warning that if they continue to engage in "Taiwan independence" activities, sooner or later they will be responsible for their words and deeds.
However, there are also some stubborn "Taiwan independence" elements on the island who do not know how to restrain them from the precipice, but want to go black on the dead road of "Taiwan independence." Chen Shizhong, former commander of the Taiwan Epidemic Command Center, recently said that if he is elected mayor of Taipei, a "Bureau of International Affairs" will be established.
According to Chen Shizhong, since Tsai Ing-wen came to power, Taipei City has become more and more close to the world, and has carried out epidemic prevention, economic and trade and cultural exchanges. In order to align himself with other international cities, Chen Shizhong said that he would integrate the strength of various units in Taipei City and actively carry out foreign-related work.
Chen Shizhong also shouted the slogan of "Let the world enter Taipei", saying that it will promote the world to get rid of the shackles of the narrative framework of the one-China principle. It can be seen from here that Chen Shizhong's so-called "Bureau of International Affairs" is actually aimed at creating "two Chinas" in the international arena.
The reason why Chen Shizhong made a big fuss at this time was mainly to create momentum for himself to run for mayor of Taipei. In recent years, politicians on the island have become more and more extreme, and participating in the election is not a contest of political achievements, but a contest of who is tougher on the mainland.
Chen Shizhong is no exception, in order to win more votes, he must show a tough posture and try his best to attract the attention of voters. At present, the Taipei mayoral election presents a three-legged situation, with Chinese Kuomintang candidate Jiang Wan'an temporarily leading, Chen Shizhong in second place, followed by Taipei Vice Mayor Huang Shanshan.
Although Chen Shizhong's support rate is not much different from That of Jiang Wan'an, Chen Shizhong's voice is not as high as that of Jiang Wan'an and Huang Shanshan, and he has not even fully won the support of the DPP voters, and may be overtaken by Huang Shanshan at any time.
Chen Shizhong did not have the dazzling aura of Jiang Wan'an, although Chen Shizhong served as the commander of the epidemic command center in Taiwan, but during his tenure, Chen Shizhong was unable to update the epidemic prevention policy in time and adapt to the development of the epidemic, resulting in the intensification of the epidemic situation on the island.
Therefore, Chen Shizhong can only keep hyping up radical topics, but the more Chen Shizhong jumps up and down, the more miserable he is finally liquidated. Perhaps challenging the one-China principle could help Chen Shizhong get elected mayor of Taipei, but it would not change his ultimate fate.
Every word Chen Shizhong said and everything he did was recorded by someone to help him record it, and it would eventually become the basis for liquidation. There is only one China in the world, and Taiwan is a part of China, and no one can change this fact, and to challenge the one-China principle is to be an enemy of the mainland.
Chen Shizhong wants to get the world rid of the framework of the one-China principle, which is an impossible thing to accomplish. Because the one-China principle has become the consensus of the international community, most countries have drawn a clear line with the Taiwan authorities, and only a few Western countries, such as the United States, have jumped up and down.
Recently, U.S. House Speaker Pelosi visited Taiwan, followed by a joint statement issued by the G7 and the European Union, claiming to oppose the mainland's unilateral change of the status quo in the Taiwan Strait. However, more than 160 countries have strongly supported the Chinese mainland and opposed U.S. interference in China's internal affairs.
The wind direction of the international community shows that even if Pelosi visits Taiwan, it will not change the existing consensus of various countries, and the "Taiwan independence" elements on the island should not be delusional. In the future, all countries will carry out exchanges and cooperation with the Taiwan authorities under the framework of the one-China principle.
In fact, in recent years, the situation of the Taiwan authorities in the international community is not good, since Tsai Ing-wen came to power, the Taiwan authorities have been unable to participate in the World Health Assembly, there have been countries that ask who invite the Taiwan authorities, but they have been refused.
This has been going on for several years, and as a subsidiary agency of the United Nations, WHO must abide by UN resolutions and adhere to the one-China principle. If the Taiwan authorities want to change this situation, they must return to the framework of the one-China principle and stop engaging in "Taiwan independence" activities.
