Ma Ying-jeou went to the mainland to receive the highest courtesy, Lai Qingde announced the personnel list-for-tat, the mainland showed its attitude, and the last suspense will be revealed?
According to CCTV news reports, on 10 April, when Ma Ying-jeou's visit to Chinese mainland was coming to an end, the mainland's high-level officials met with Ma Ying-jeou at the Great Hall of the People and held a banquet that night to entertain him; the mainland side stressed the history of compatriots on both sides of the strait belonging to one China, and Ma Ying-jeou reiterated his adherence to the "consensus of '92" and his opposition to "Taiwan independence" It is the common political foundation of the two sides of the strait, and exchanges and cooperation should be deepened and China should be rejuvenated hand in hand; on the same day that the mainland's high-level meeting with Ma Ying-jeou, Taiwan's leader-designate Lai Ching-te announced the appointment of personnel, and the implication of-for-tat confrontation with the mainland is self-evident.
Judging from the list, Zhuo Rongtai is the leader of the administrative organs, Zheng Lijun is his deputy, the secretary general is Gong Mingxin, the current "chairman of the National Development Council," Chen Shikai, spokesman for Lai Qingde's campaign office, Chen Shikai, is the spokesman of the administrative organs, Gu Lixiong is the head of the defense department, and Wu Zhaoxie, the head of the foreign affairs department, is the "secretary general of the Security Council." These people are all out-and-out "Taiwan independence" elements; with the combination of Lai Qingde and Hsiao Meiqin, the future political situation on the island is hopeless, and there is still a "director of the Mainland Affairs Council" The candidate has not been revealed, which has become a major suspense on the island.
In addition, Lai Qingde's appointment has sent a clear signal: The previous speculation about Lai Qingde's easing of cross-strait relations and abandoning the "Tsai Ing-wen line" has gone bankrupt, and Lai Qingde has made it clear that he wants to take the "Taiwan independence" line all the way to the black.
The mainland's high-level meeting with Ma Ying-jeou has made clear the mainland's desire and expectation for peaceful reunification; as long as it acknowledges the "consensus of '92" and opposes "Taiwan independence," the mainland will not close the window for dialogue; at the same time, the mainland hopes that there will be more people of insight like Ma Ying-jeou who will act as envoys for cross-strait exchanges and promote cross-strait reunification at an early date. What Lai Qingde needs to understand is that the more "independence" is, the more reunification will be, and the mainland will give a forceful counterattack to any provocative move and speed up the pace of reunification; due to the factor of the Hualien earthquake in Taiwan, the PLA has suspended the pace of patrolling Taiwan, and based on Lai Qingde's various performances, the possibility of the mainland increasing its military presence in the Taiwan Strait cannot be ruled out.
Not long ago, Rosenberg, chairman of the "American Institute in Taiwan," visited Taiwan and met with Lai Qingde, saying that "the United States' commitment to Taiwan is as firm as a rock" and that it will intensify its efforts to support Taiwan's "defense." Recently, US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan took the opportunity of the US-Japan-Philippine summit to hype up the Taiwan Strait issue and reiterated the so-called "Taiwan Relations Act" and the "six US assurances to Taiwan," saying that the United States would ensure that "something happens to Taiwan" would never happen. It is not difficult to see that Biden has once again reversed his promise not to support "Taiwan independence", and there is still a long way to go to resolve the Taiwan issue.
The mainland's determination to resolve the Taiwan issue is unquestionable, and although peaceful reunification is the main keynote, it does not promise to renounce the use of force; if Lai Qingde fails to recognize the situation, he will only end up reaping the consequences of his own evil and setting himself on fire.
