The man who claimed to be Chinese spy, Wang Liqiang, voted to the Australian Intelligence Agency and revealed to the media that he penetrated the Taiwan election.In the rumor, Wang Nan worked in a Chinese innovative investment company in Hong Kong and was responsible for penetrating the Hong Kong financial market and collecting military intelligence. He claimed to participate in the abduction of the Causeway Bay scholars in 2015 to negotiate and implement follow -up tasks.
Its intelligence unit is responsible for infiltrating the media, temples and grass -roots organizations of Taiwan, successfully affecting the 2018 Nine -in -one Taiwan local elections, and affecting the Taiwan President and legislators in 2020.This spy case coincided with the Taiwan election, which caused a high debate and offensive and defensive war on the blue and green parties.
The Chinese media alleged that Wang Liqiang, who fled to Australia, had become a new tool for discrediting China in the West, and accused him of the announcement of Beijing's 2020 elections and other remarks.Starting on both sides of the strait.
The State Council also alleged that the Shanghai Public Security Organ has clarified that the so -called Chinese agent Wang Liqiang is actually a fugitive involved in the case and has a scammer. At the same time, it is clear that the facts are very clear.A lot of scripts; and attacking the DPP authorities and fraud prisoners to be tied together to carry out political operations, intending to create the illusion of the so -called mainland's intervention in Taiwan elections, and seek improper election private interest.
Taiwan's largest opposition Kuomintang demanded that the Tsai Ing -wen government should give Wang Liqiang political asylum so that he can go to Taiwan to make it clear.President Tsai Ing -wen stated that the incident has now entered the investigation and investigation stage. The law enforcement unit should be investigated, clarified the relevant cases, and discovered the truth.At the same time, she pointed out that Taiwan is a country of democracy and rule of law. It is necessary to launch investigations or investigations and deal with serious national security incidents in accordance with legal procedures. This process should not be overly political.
First of all, the Democratic Progressive Party used this spy case to clarify the failure of the nine -in -one local election. Some of the Chinese authorities involved in the Taiwan election, which hinted that the Chinese authorities assisted the Kuomintang.The Democratic Progressive Party used the former executive president You Xizheng that although the common spy case has not yet been determined, the 2018 Taiwan County Mayor election confirms that the Chinese authorities have affected the Taiwan elections as much as possible, which led to the DPP's defeat.Although the DPP needs to review itself, there are also international factors. This time, we must be careful not to affect the election.
Tsai Ing -wen believes that in the face of such serious problems, you must not underestimate it. He must also verify it carefully. China intervenes and infiltrate Taiwan will exist at all times. The people of Taiwan must also know that democracy is not falling in the sky and must be defended.In other words, the important leaders of the DPP believe that the spy case just proves that the Chinese authorities do have indeed involved in the Taiwan election. The local election defeat is not entirely due to Cai Yingwen's reform and central governance dilemma.
Secondly, the Democratic Progressive Party emphasized that the Taiwan government is not capable of operating international issues, and the Kuomintang criticized the DPP to operate this issue, and the two parties were in disputes between operations and anti -operational election issues.The Kuomintang Vice President Zhang Shanzheng criticized the Democratic Progressive Party to use the issue of spy cases to lift the presidential election; the Democratic Progressive Party vice presidential candidate Lai Qingde said that the Taiwan government was unable to operate international issues.
When the Kuomintang questioned the time in the Taiwan election, it was extremely coincidental. Tsai Ing -wen proposed that the incident involved not only Taiwan, but also several countries. I believe that no Taiwan party or anyone has the ability to operate., To speculate, do not need this political hype.The two parties are in the debate of clarification and anti -clarification, operation and anti -operating spy cases.
Furthermore, the DPP criticized the Kuomintang's position should not be consistent with the Chinese authorities.For Zhang Shanzheng's criticism of the DPP's operational spy case, Lai Qingde said that he does not have to immediately say whether Wang Liqiang is a spy or a fraud in the Chinese authorities.AIA investigations clearly explained to the international community, and then they will know the truth.
The Kuomintang invited Weng Yanqing, the former deputy director of the Military Intelligence Bureau to clarify that it was a false case for seeking political asylum.However, this clarification is easy to give the DPP to criticize the consistency of the Kuomintang and the Chinese authorities.The Kuomintang also has different views on this, thinking that the Kuomintang should not express so quickly, and it is easy to be scratched by red and ugly.This shows that the Kuomintang's impact on the common spy case on the Taiwan election, and its position has fallen into a dilemma.
In the end, the Democratic Progressive Party expressed the incident to be investigated. The Kuomintang criticized this to delay time, which is conducive to election operations.Tsai Ing -wen believes that it should be investigated. At that time, there will be more objective views on this matter. As for how to deal with it in the future, it will be discussed at this stage.
Lai Qingde criticized the Kuomintang to take the same position as the Chinese authorities to criticize the DPP's operational issues. This is not good for the Kuomintang to choose a situation. It is not necessary. The incident should be developed naturally.
Tsai Ing -wen instructed the Taiwan Guoan unit to go to Australia for a verification and proposed that this involving important affairs involved in national security. The investigation units and law enforcement units must conduct necessary investigations.She not only declared that during this period, she did not want the outside world to speculate deliberately, but also reminded the public to remember that China involved in Taiwan's elections and infiltrated Taiwanese society. This is the fact that it exists at all times.This statement logic is quite contradictory.
In response to the Chinese authorities' announcement of Wang Liqiang's audition films involved in fraud, Cai Yingwen said that it was inconvenient to commented on the investigation procedure to make more comments and let professional law enforcement officers handle it.She also emphasized that the Taiwan authorities will be in administrative and legislative aspects in the future, and the entire national security maintenance and reverse osmosis legal system can be done more thoroughly.
Coinciding with the outbreak of spy cases during the Taiwan election, the DPP has proved the reasonableness of the DPP's anti -Central Poly Taiwan route.However, according to legitimate legal procedures, after the spy case is under investigation and investigation, the election has already ended, and the selection of China may have affected the results of the election.However, if the Democratic Progressive Party excessively operates the spy case, it is like a double -sided blade, which may not only have the success of crisis mobilization and become a super -assistant; it may also transfer the control of the crisis and become a continuous ruling.
