Lai Ching-te, the new regional leader of the Taiwan authorities, officially took office on 20 May, and there is still a month left before Lai Ching-te has begun to prepare for the personnel arrangements of the new administrative team. In this change of "political power" between the old and the new, how Lai Qingde will be arranged has become the focus of more attention on Taiwan Island in the near future.
Earlier, Lai Ching-te officially announced the list of administrative personnel, including the person in charge of the new administrative organ of the Taiwan authorities, former chairman of the Democratic Progressive Party, Zhuo Rongtai. The deputy director and secretary were Zheng Lijun, the former director of culture, and Gong Mingxin, the "chairman of the National Development Council", respectively.
According to the analysis of Taiwan media, these three people are Lai Qingde's iron triangle assistants when he conducted the general election in Taiwan, and Lai Qingde did not forget to give back important positions to them after winning the election, and it is also aimed at the new administrative team to thoroughly implement Lai Qingde's will.
However, Lai Qingde's decision to take over Gu Lixiong, a "civilian official" with an excessively strong ideology for Taiwan independence, has aroused considerable dissatisfaction among people on the island! A number of retired Taiwan generals at the front desk said that Lai Qingde made this arrangement because he wanted to completely "green" the Taiwan military. However, Kuomintang "legislator" Xu Qiaoxin believes that Lai Qingde's move is a helpless move, because there is really no one in the DPP to look for.
And judging from the candidates currently announced by Lai Qingde, there is no one who is reused by Tsai Ing-wen, and it can be seen that Lai Qingde does not want to use "Tsai Gui Lai Sui" in the new regime.
However, Lai Qingde has not yet come to power, his foundation is unstable, and Tsai Ing-wen's influence has not been dispersed, and I am afraid that Lai Qingde will not be able to make decisions completely according to his own will in the new administrative team.
In the past few days, when Tsai Ing-wen met with the "New Zealand Cross-Party Friendship with Taiwan Group" visiting the Taiwan region, she unexpectedly revealed to foreign guests that Wu Zhaoxie, the current secretary general of Tsai Ing-wen's office and head of the foreign affairs department, will take up the post of "secretary general" of the new security council.
Judging from Tsai Ing-wen's on-site performance, the sudden announcement of personnel arrangements this time was not an accident, but a long-planned plan. This move was criticized by the media on the island, claiming that Tsai Ing-wen's move did not respect Lai Qingde's personnel rights, and Tsai Ing-wen's move was too reckless in the eyes of the Taiwanese people.
Since Tsai Ing-wen has long had this intention, of course, she also knows that it is inappropriate to do so, but she still did it, which shows that Tsai Ing-wen does not want to hand over all internal forces to Lai Qingde after stepping down.
On the U.S. side, Blinken just announced that he would visit China, but before Blinken came, the U.S. State Department's Assistant Secretary for Asia-Pacific Affairs Kangda and Senior Director for China Affairs Beshalan visited China first. Coupled with Yellen's visit to China in early April, the United States has frequently visited China during this period, and it can be inferred that the United States is currently interested in finding out more about China.
According to the Global Times, Foreign Ministry Ma Zhaoxu met with Kangda and Beshalan, as well as U.S. Ambassador to China Burns, and the two sides exchanged views on the current world situation and disputed areas, but did not disclose details. However, the U.S. State Department for Asia-Pacific Affairs
Assistant Secretary Kangda specifically mentioned the importance of peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait and said that the "one-China policy" of the United States has not changed.
We still don't know whether the United States sent Kangda to the Chinese side to express its support for the "one-China policy" on the occasion of Lai Qingde's imminent inauguration, but there should be an answer before and after Lai Qingde's inauguration in 520, and it cannot be ruled out that the United States wants to confuse the mainland and relax its vigilance against Taiwan.
The United States is a habitual tactic to vague its stance on the Taiwan issue, and when it wants to use Taiwan to contain the mainland, it will aggravate the escalation of the situation in the Taiwan Strait, but when it wants to talk about cooperation with China, it affirms the "one-China policy." However, the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) is pretending to be deaf and dumb, and is willing to become a pawn of the United States, putting the safety of Taiwan in a dangerous situation.
