As the former chairman of the Chinese Kuomintang and the former leader of China's Taiwan region, Ma Ying-jeou has long since stepped down, but his influence is still there, which is also the reason why the Chinese government still treats him with courtesy, especially in cross-strait exchanges and historical identity, which can play a very good exemplary role. During this trip, Ma Ying-jeou visited many places and made solemn statements on Taiwan's status, and the "Cairo Declaration" of the Allies during World War II is the most powerful evidence, and no matter how much the "Taiwan independence" forces clamore and propagate all day long, they cannot change the ironclad fact that Taiwan is a part of China.
On April 7, Ma Ying-jeou led young Taiwan students to Beijing, and the next day they visited the Chinese Memorial Hall of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the Lugou Bridge, and the Forbidden City in Beijing. While visiting the Memorial Hall of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Ma Ying-jeou made a solemn statement on Taiwan's status, refuting those who concocted and propagated the theory that "Taiwan's status is undecided" and "completely lacks common sense of international law." Moreover, the most powerful historical document is the "Cairo Declaration," which has long defined Taiwan's status, and no matter how much sophistry, sophistry, or stealing concepts, it is useless.
Since the dregs of the "Taiwan independence" forces have risen, they have begun to concoct the theory that "Taiwan's status is undecided," and the international anti-China forces have also coordinated propaganda for them in an attempt to build up momentum in legal theory and public opinion for splitting China's sacred territory. At present, there are countless documents related to the Taiwan region, and many of them are advocating that "Taiwan's status is undecided," reversing black and white, and making ill-intentioned speculations, and their fundamental purpose is to falsify historical memory and pave the way for "Taiwan independence."
On December 1, 1943, China, the United States and Britain signed the Cairo Declaration, which clearly stipulated that Northeast China, Taiwan and the Penghu Islands should be returned to China, which clearly had the force of international law. Later, the Soviet Union participated in the "Potstan Proclamation", reaffirmed that "the conditions of the Cairo Declaration will be implemented", and the surrender document signed by Japan also recognized the fulfillment of the obligations of the "Potsdam Declaration". This series of historical documents, which have the force of international law and facts, have undoubtedly confirmed that China has recovered Taiwan and Taiwan has returned to the embrace of the motherland, while now the "Taiwan independence" forces are deliberately distorting history for political purposes and advocating that "Taiwan's status is undecided."
Not only that, some people in the United States have also vigorously clamored for the DPP authorities to "conclude that Taiwan's status is undecided." On 16 January this year, after learning the news that Lai Ching-te had been elected and Nauru immediately announced the "severance of diplomatic relations" with the Taiwan authorities, Rosenberg, chairman of the American Institute in Taiwan, not only condemned Nauru at a news conference, but also once again dished out the theory that "Taiwan's status is undecided" and propagated the long-notorious fallacy that "the UN General Assembly Resolution 2758 did not make a decision on Taiwan's status." Obviously, some people in the US Government just want to play the "Taiwan card" and play "fight but not break" in an attempt to contain and suppress China.
If we follow the rhetoric of "Taiwan independence," then what will be the next step in the "undecided status"? It will certainly be to clamor for the so-called "self-determination on the island" and then begin to engage in some kind of "referendum" and "voting"; in addition, since the godfather of "Taiwan independence" Lee Teng-hui came to power, he has thrown out some "Taiwan independence" propositions such as "separation of the two sides of the strait," and in addition, he has connived at the spread of the "Taiwan independence" trend of thought on the island and revised the history textbooks, which have to a great extent wiped out the memory and identification of the younger generation in Taiwan with the motherland, and the goal of the "Taiwan independence" forces will be more easily achieved.
First, we must take a clear-cut stand against the so-called "theory that Taiwan's status is undecided." People of insight on the island, experts in the interior of the motherland, and international scholars on the Taiwan issue are all continuing to oppose this crooked theory advocated by the DPP authorities, and we must "crack down on it as soon as it emerges" and prevent this kind of crooked theory from surviving; second, we must refute it in a targeted manner, have a legal basis, and are detailed and sufficient, so that we can effectively counterattack the "theory" on which the "Taiwan independence" forces rely on it.
At present, the DPP authorities are still clinging to the "Taiwan independence" signboard and dreaming of a thousand years, and all kinds of literature and research on "de jure Taiwan independence" have also emerged one after another, all of which serve their pursuit of "Taiwan independence." It has to be said that the "Taiwan independence" trend of thought on the island has poisoned a generation of people since the DPP authorities engaged in "cultural gradual Taiwan independence," and it is really difficult to judge what kind of stance and attitude Taiwan's young people will have toward the mainland of the motherland in the future. What is certain, however, is that the DPP authorities have tampered with history textbooks, engaged in academic and legal studies on "Taiwan's status has not yet been determined," and even clamored for "amending the constitution and correcting the name," thus thoroughly exposing their "Taiwan independence" separatist plot.
Ma Ying-jeou also said he was convinced that any so-called "de-Sinicization" would not succeed. In the face of the DPP's strategy of "cultural gradual Taiwan independence," Ma Ying-jeou was already aware of it when he was in office, and he also resisted and refuted it at that time; after leaving office, he deeply felt that the situation was grim and the responsibility was heavy, and now he is even more running and speaking out from all sides, and he has also led Taiwan's youth representatives to visit and exchange with the mainland of the motherland, with the aim of building a bridge for Taiwan's younger generation to understand the motherland when the DPP authorities are trying by all means to block cross-strait exchanges, in order to thwart the DPP authorities' attempt to "de-Sinicize."
As a matter of fact, Mr. Ma Ying-jeou can be regarded as a "clear stream" on the island of Taiwan, and now the political ecology on the island is scattered, politicians of all walks of life and various performances are emerging one after another, constantly breaking through the bottom line of human cognition, and the DPP authorities do not take the Taiwan people seriously and are bent on pursuing "Taiwan independence." Ma Ying-jeou is now able to take the initiative to act as an envoy of peace and exchanges between the two sides of the strait, leading Taiwan's young people to come to the Yellow Emperor's Mausoleum to pay respects to their ancestors, refute the "Taiwan independence" remarks, and study the history of the Chinese nation.
