The countdown to the election on the island has begun, and both the blue and green parties have begun to "open fire" on the mainland, and the DPP authorities have not allowed Taiwan compatriots from the mainland to return to Taiwan to participate in voting, and Zhao Shaokang has also spoken openly and refused to negotiate reunification with the mainland. The mainland's Taiwan Affairs Office did not say much and directly offered options to the Taiwan region.
With only 16 days to go until the 2024 elections on the island, the competition between blue, green and white is intensifying. Although, after the formation of "Hou Kangpei", the KMT's support rate has risen by a wave, but the polls in the past two days have seen a lot of fluctuations. According to the latest poll results on the island, "Lai Xiaopei" currently ranks first with 33.3 percent of the support rate, while "Hou Kang Pei" ranks second with 26.5 percent, and "Ke Yingpei" ranks last with 23.2 percent.
You must know that a few days ago, "Hou Kangpei" once tied with "Lai Xiaopei" with a support rate of 31 percent, but now after entering the countdown, the gap between the blue and green battalions has once again widened, and the situation is bound to be unfavorable for the Kuomintang. Therefore, in the past two days, both the blue and green battalions began to "fire" at the mainland.
Recently, there has been news on the island that the DPP authorities have banned Taiwan compatriots on the mainland from returning to Taiwan to vote in the election under the pretext that the mainland's respiratory illness is "serious." Obviously, at this critical moment, the DPP made this arrangement deliberately. As early as a few months ago, the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) continued to spread rumors that the mainland had "intervened" in the elections in the Taiwan region.
Now that it has entered the sprint stage, the DPP has made this move again, clearly hinting that it will put an end to all opportunities for the mainland to "contact" the election. After all, the DPP's claim that respiratory diseases are "serious" is simply untenable. According to the latest survey results from the mainland, the total number of consultations and treatments has fallen by 8.2% in the second half of this month, and by 30.02% compared with the peak.
Judging from these data, it is clear that the number of respiratory diseases in the mainland has been declining recently. Therefore, this move by the Taiwan authorities is fundamentally reversing black and white and using the topic to play into play. In addition, Zhao Shaokang also said in the past two days that if the KMT is elected, he will never promote reunification talks during his term of office.
Hou Youyi has always supported the resumption of cross-strait dialogue to ensure peace in the Taiwan region, but Zhao Shaokang's remarks are obviously contrary to Hou Youyi's remarks. Of course, the reason why Zhao Shaokang is shouting "rejection of reunification" at this moment is, on the one hand, to "refute" the rumor that the Kuomintang and the mainland are cooperating to "interfere" in the election.
On the other hand, it is also to win more votes. As far as the KMT is concerned, if it only blindly supports cross-strait peace talks, it will inevitably be labeled as "pro-communist" by the DPP, and it will lose some of its votes. Therefore, the Kuomintang is now carrying out a strategy of "grasping things with both hands."
On the one hand, it is necessary to maintain relations with the mainland so as to prevent the Taiwan region from falling into a situation of war and danger, and on the other hand, it is necessary to continue to persist in "seeking independence" and refuse to return to the motherland. It can be seen from this that at present, both the blue and green parties have stepped up their efforts to play the "anti-China" card in order to make a last-ditch fight. In this regard, the mainland did not say much and directly offered the Taiwan region a choice.
Chen Binhua, spokesman for the mainland's Taiwan Affairs Office, bluntly said that the Taiwan region is now facing a crossroads. "Taiwan independence" means war, but as long as we oppose "Taiwan independence" and adhere to the "consensus of '92," it is easy for the two sides of the strait to discuss anything. In addition, he called on relevant personages on the island to make more remarks that are conducive to the peaceful development of cross-strait relations.
In addition, Chen Binhua also stressed that if the DPP continues to adhere to the "Taiwan independence" line, the relevant departments of the mainland can further adopt trade restrictions against Taiwan. It can be seen that the mainland's remarks have made it very clear that if "Taiwan independence" is chosen, there will never be a day of peace in the Taiwan Strait region, and the mainland will continue to strengthen trade countermeasures against the Taiwan region.
However, if the "Taiwan independence" line is abandoned and the "consensus of '92" is regained, there will be a lot of room for negotiations between the two sides of the strait, whether it is a trade issue or a political issue. You must know that two days ago, after the mainland announced the suspension of the preferential tariffs on Taiwan's 12 tariff items in the ECFA, it set off an uproar on the island.
At present, people in the industry on the island are beginning to worry about the mainland's next move, and if the mainland completely suspends the ECFA, it will hit the island's economy hard. Therefore, whether it is the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) or the Kuomintang, they should put the interests of the people on the island first, rather than only caring about their own political interests.
Otherwise, even if we win victory in this election, we will still be unworthy, and the outside world in the Taiwan region will still be gloomy. Therefore, the compatriots on the island should keep their eyes open and take their own destiny into their own hands.
