Recently, the US and Taiwan elections are like the Political Carnival Association. They have accused mainland China in the United States' midterm elections and Taiwan's nine -in -one local elections.Taiwan President Tsai Ing -wen especially refers to fake news and rumors to make the election situation a little bit of smoke. Criticizing China through the Internet to maliciously spread false information and attempts to affect international public opinion., There are also perforate penetration and fake information.
Tsai Ing -wen was constructed by the awareness of crisis to call on the people of Taiwan to support the protection of the values of Taiwan and block the invasion of overseas forces.The so -called overseas forces refer to the intervention of Chinese elections in China, although the Chinese authorities have repeatedly denied intervention in Taiwan elections.
However, the DPP authorities still pointed out that a specific candidate for China -funded and aid has been filed for investigations; at the same time, it is pointed out that in accordance with the regulations of the Cross -Strait People's Relations, it is not allowed to be allowed to enter political contributions.The Chief Executive Lai Qingde called on candidates to be constrained to avoid the power of other countries to interfere with the election.
Lai Qingde quoted US Vice President Pence to give a speech, accusing China of using various means to influence American election and influence its internal affairs, and therefore also imposed an impact on Taiwan's elections.As a partner of China in the United States India's strategy, since China will intervene in the U.S. mid -term elections, it will interfere in the local election in Taiwan.
First of all, whether the US -Taiwan relations are based on the so -called democratic value alliance, or Taiwan plays a soft -blocking role in the US India's strategic partnership, shaping China's threat theory has become a necessary necessity of political correctness.
The United States and Taiwan also claimed that the criticism of China's internal elections involved almost involved the highest -level leaders and the entire national machine. Chinese factor not only became the imaginary enemy and opponent of the US -Taiwan national strategy, but also became a live model for cheap publicity during the election process.However, criticizing China to intervene in the US -Taiwan election process will inevitably worsen each other's relationship, especially for the original deterioration of cross -strait relations, which is even more worse.
For the United States, it is shaped that China is a revisionist state image, interfered in the US internal affairs and destroy its democratic development, and is in line with the loss of the people who face the hegemony and the political atmosphere of the enemy.
For Taiwan, China is a hostile and territorial ambition country. It adopts a hard, harder, softer and softering strategy for Taiwan's policies.Adopting a hard and hard strategy to give it to try to control the Taiwan election process, it seems to be a proposition that does not prove itself.
Secondly, regardless of the authenticity of China's intervention in the Maitai election process, it is indeed unrelated to whether it is really willing to intervene in the political process of the United States and Taiwan. Especially, especially the cross -strait policy orientation of different political parties within the United States and Taiwan, Chinese factors often become the focus of policy debate in election campaigns.
For example, in the 2012 and 2016 presidential elections of Taiwan, the 92 consensus maintained the status quo and the key factor for the victory of the Kuomintang's Ma Ying -jeou and the Democratic Progressive Party. These two claims involved cross -strait policies.As for the United States, whether the Democratic Obama ruling proposes to balance the Asia -Pacific strategy, or Trump's initiative to Indo -Pacific Strategy, it has strengthened its plugging in China.
The Kuomintang acknowledged the 1992 consensus, which means that the national unified goal is clear and adopted a policy orientation of active contact with cooperation.P>
EssenceTaiwan's Chinese policy eventually involves the final status of cross -strait status, while the US Chinese policy involves how to avoid the traps of Xunxione. Whether it is adopting contact with exchanges or enclosing and curbing strategies, it is related to the global super powers and strategic competitors interactive criteria for interactive criteria.design.
Finally, during the election of the United States period, there have been cases that have been criticized by the Chinese government before the election. This time, the US criticism of China is not a special case.However, the Trump administration has comprehensively explained and criticized China's amendment country, criticizing China's hegemony expansion, endangering regional security, harming human rights, suppression of Taiwan, debt diplomacy, infringing intellectual property rights, and so on.
The United States has carried out comprehensive criticism of China, not only trying to accuse China's intervention elections to reverse the election; at the same time, through the US -China trade war, it has improved tariffs and exerts the effects of balanced trade deficit.In the East Asian regional hegemony leadership, the United States tries to weaken Chinese characters.This is a political measure that the Trump administration has stabilized its regime and re -defined its national interests, and once again made the United States stronger.
The Taiwan authorities echoed the Trump administration, and also accused China of intervening in Taiwan's elections. It tried to support specific candidates with overseas funds and the establishment of online troops to disturb democracy by spreading fake news and fake information.This is like the United States accusing China of its elections, political processes and democratic interference, and criticizing China to re -apply the trick of Taiwan.
During the criticism of mainland China's involvement in the US -Taiwan election, the US -Taiwan authorities have become the alliances to defend democratic politics; Taiwan has also become an indispensable partner of the United States India's strategy.
Based on the impact of the implants of the Chinese threat, the United States and Taiwan are based on the election of the administrative interests and national strategic needs.The United States and Taiwan authorities regard Chinese factors as an important variable in the election process. The Republican and DPP deepen as a pirate cricket for saving their downturn elections, and it is also the top priority of the country's survival strategy.
