When the mainland's opportunity came, the United States' attitude toward Taiwan changed, Han Kuo-yu admitted "one China," and Zhang Yazhong expressed his position

The time has come for the reunification of the mainland? The United States has changed its attitude toward Taiwan, with Han Kuo-yu personally admitting "one China" and Zhang Yazhong saying that the two sides of the strait will eventually be peacefully reunified, and it seems that everything is changing toward a situation favorable to the mainland.

The United States has changed its attitude toward Taiwan

Some time ago, US President Joe Biden had a phone call with the Chinese side, during which the two sides talked and exchanged views on China-US relations, the Russia-Ukraine conflict, the Palestinian-Israeli conflict and other issues.

The Chinese side clearly pointed out that the "San Francisco Vision" requires the two countries to work hard to reach a consensus, and at the same time, the negative factors affecting China-US relations are also increasing, and both sides should pay attention to them.

The Chinese side stressed on more than one occasion during the phone call that the Taiwan issue is a red line that cannot be crossed in Sino-US relations, and hopes that the United States will take action to fulfill its commitment not to support "Taiwan independence."

In the call, Biden stressed the importance of maintaining peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait, reiterating that the United States has always adhered to the "one-China principle" and does not support "Taiwan independence" or seek a "new Cold War".

This is in stark contrast to Biden's military aid to Taiwan, indicating a change in US rhetoric toward Taiwan. At the same time, Biden's wording cut out the expression "maintaining the status quo in the Taiwan Strait", which is different from his previous statement.

In addition, Rosenberg, chairman of the American Institute in Taiwan, "visited Taiwan" and told Lai Qingde that the United States hopes that the status quo in the Taiwan Strait will be maintained and asked Lai Qingde not to make moves that provoke the mainland.

At the same time, Rosenberg also held a special meeting with Han Kuo-yu to warn Lai Qingde and the Democratic Progressive Party and other "Taiwan independence forces" and hoped that Han Kuo-yu, as the head of Taiwan's so-called legislative body, would be able to have a counterbalancing effect on Lai Qingde.

However, the mainland must understand that this is not a "benevolent intention" of the United States, and the Biden administration's move to oppose "Taiwan independence" seems to be more of a strategic act based on its own interests.

However, this has undoubtedly played a certain role in easing cross-strait relations.

Han Kuo-yu's wording changed?

Han Kuo-yu's words then changed.

Last week, when Taiwan was hit by a strong earthquake, Han Kuo-yu said in his comments that he reminded Taiwanese residents to remain vigilant and take safety precautions during the disaster.

Han Kuo-yu's use of the phrase "Taiwan region" in his speech proves from the side that he recognizes the "one-China principle."

Han Kuo-yu's statement made some "politicians" break their defenses, and DPP "legislator" Xu Zhijie and others fiercely criticized him, questioning his statement that he had damaged the dignity of the "country".

But in fact, Taiwan, as an integral part of China, is fully justified in calling it a region.

Because of the deep-rooted "Taiwan independence" ideology, the DPP is dissatisfied with Han Kuo-yu's statement with a positive attitude, as if he has stepped on a sore spot, and he is emotionally nervous, and he can only be powerless to fight back, which is really extremely absurd.

Moreover, judging from the overall strength of the two sides of the strait at present, the mainland has sufficient strategies and options to realize the reunification of Taiwan. The DPP cannot stop this.

Zhang Yazhong: The two sides of the strait will eventually be peacefully reunified

Judging from various public opinions, the DPP's "Taiwan independence" stance has long ceased to be the mainstream on the island.

Recently, Zhang Yazhong, who ran for KMT chairman on the same stage with Zhu Lilun, openly stated that the two sides of the strait are of the same language and species, and that the Taiwan issue is an internal issue for the Chinese, and the final result will be peaceful reunification, and there is no possibility of "independence" in the Taiwan region.

Meanwhile, former Taiwan leader Ma Ying-jeou is still on the mainland, arriving on April 1 and leaving on April 11.

Ma Ying-jeou is currently in Beijing, and his itinerary in Beijing includes visiting Peking University, the Badaling Great Wall, the Forbidden City in Beijing, and the China Academy of Space Technology.

In addition, Ma Ying-jeou also spent some time in Guangzhou, Shaanxi and other places.

Ma Ying-jeou's current visit to the mainland is to promote cross-strait exchanges and to tell the island that in addition to catering to the DPP, young people on the island can also choose to embrace the mainland.

The change in the island's attitude may indicate that the time has come for the mainland to promote peaceful reunification.

This is a headache for Lai Qingde, who is increasingly clamoring for peaceful reunification between the two sides of the strait, and the pressure exerted by the mainland and the United States on the "Taiwan independence" forces is gradually increasing, and Lai Qingde's situation can be described as extremely embarrassing.

Therefore, in the short term, it is difficult for Lai Qingde to set off a storm in the Taiwan Strait.

However, in the long run, we must also be prepared for drastic changes in the situation in the Taiwan Strait, resolutely promote the process of cross-strait reunification, and usher in long-term peace in the Taiwan Strait.

Of course, "peaceful reunification" is considered the best choice for the reunification of the mainland, because after all, blood is thicker than water, and the Chinese will not attack their compatriots.

However, in consideration of the actual situation, the mainland has never given up military means for reunification. Everything depends on the actions of the "Taiwan independence" elements and the interference of the United States in the Taiwan Strait.
