The 2024 Taiwan leadership election has come to an end, and the victory of Lai Ching-te, who prides himself as a "Taiwan independence worker", has allowed the DPP to enter the third term of power for the first time, breaking the curse of the rotation of the KMT and the DPP every two terms since Chen Shui-bian.

The continuous rise and growth of Taiwan independence forces has once again aggravated the risk of conflict between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait. After the election, the People's Liberation Army (PLA) conducted a series of routine drills around the island, which made the DPP feel tremendous pressure. In order to cheer up the Taiwan independence forces, the United States has taken action:
Arleigh Burke-class destroyer "USS John Finn" network source
According to the official account of the Eastern Theater of Operations: Senior Colonel Shi Yi, spokesman for the Eastern Theater of Operations, said that on January 24, the US destroyer "Finn" sailed through the Taiwan Strait and publicly hyped it. The Eastern Theater of the Chinese People's Liberation Army organized troops to follow and monitor the entire process of the US ship's transit, and dealt with it in accordance with laws and regulations.
Recently, the US military has frequently carried out provocative acts and maliciously undermined regional peace and stability. The troops in the theater are on high alert at all times and resolutely defend national sovereignty, security, and regional peace and stability.
At the end of last year, under the drag of the two conflicts of the Russia-Ukraine war and the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, the United States had to withdraw most of its military forces from the South China Sea to the Middle East to support and cheer up Israel.
However, the military deterrence in the Middle East did not follow the idea of the United States, and it was not only expelled from the Persian Gulf by Iran in a high-profile manner, but also turned to deter the Houthis in Yemen in the Red Sea.

The United States, which is so old, has long been strong in the outside world, but it still does not forget the strategy of containing and encircling China, and dreams of consolidating the first island chain and continuing to add blockage to China's development.
This time, there is only one Arleigh Burke-class destroyer, which knows that it can only disgust and disgust China, but it has brushed up its presence through public hype and provided a starting point for the Taiwan independence forces to advocate on the island.
Whether it is the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) for Taiwan independence, the Kuomintang (KMT) for Taiwan independence, or the People's Party for opportunism, they must all perform under the baton of the United States and be driven by US interests.
This destroyer "Finn" is nothing more than a poisonous lollipop provided by the United States to Taiwanese politicians, and in addition to psychological anesthesia, it also has to brainlessly charge for the interests of the United States!
