Vice President Lai Qingde will visit Paraguay in mid -August and transit the United States to visit.Compared with the high -profile of Lai Qingde's shouting "Taiwan to enter the White House" in Taiwan, the United States is extremely low -key to Lai to the United States, and even has not even been announced to this day.It was not completely eliminated.
Lai Qingde, who claimed to be a "pragmatic Taiwan independence worker" in the past, emphasized when he was sworn in the DPP chairman at the beginning of this year that Taiwan is already a sovereign independent country, and there is no need for Taiwan's independence.route.Obviously, Lai is also very clear that the label of "Taiwan independence" will become the biggest "cover door" for him to go to Presidential Road.
In order to remove the doubts of the United States, most of the past important foreign guests came to Taiwan by Tsai Ing -wen himself. After Lai Qingde participated in the 2024 Presidential election, more and more visiting groups were in charge of the visit. In addition to allowing Lai to participate in foreign affairs early,It is also proved that Lai Qingde will continue Cai Yingwen's external route in the future.
In the past, President and Vice President visited. In order to avoid early exposure and add Beijing interference variables, most of them will be announced until one week before departure. The presidential palace is abnormal.The information of the United States is obvious to remove the outsiders "the United States is not very dependent."
However, as soon as Lai Qingde announced the news of transit the United States, Chen Binhua, a spokesman for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the Mainland China Office, criticized "'Practical Taiwan Independence Workers', which is the peaceful and stable‘ troublemaker ’in the Taiwan Strait.
Lai Qingde mentioned that in the future, if "Taiwan can enter the White House, the political goals they are pursuing have been achieved."The ministry has denied that this is the case, but the saying that "walking into the White House" will break the "one middle school policy" that the United States has insisted on. It is no wonder that someone will care so much.
For Lai Qingde's visit, Sun Xiaoya, director of the Taipei Office of the United States Association (AIT), explained in a press conference on the 19th that the vice president's transit the United States is in line with the "unofficial essence" of Taiwan and the United States and "in line with the United States No. 1 China Middle SchoolObviously, the United States does not want this trip to be given too many political significance outside the "unofficial", and it does not want to be shaped the impression of "violating the one -China policy".
In response to cross -strait relations, Sun Xiaoya also said, "We believe that no one will try to overthrow the status quo." This sentence is not only to listen to the other side, but also to the future leaders of Taiwan.
Lai Qingde's transit the United States, in addition to fighting for the support of the United States, also proves his leadership ability, especially on the eve of the Kuomintang presidential candidate Hou Youyi in September, hoping to create an atmosphere of the United States' special courtesy and let Ke WenzheNeither and Hou Youyi could not see his rear lights.
On the one hand, Lai Qingde wants to excite the local consciousness, use "Taiwan to enter the White House" to evoke the enthusiasm of supporters, and on the other hand, it is hoped that it is expected to lift its value through the United States, but it is only when the United States actively promotes the November of this year.It does not want Lai's visit to become a variable that hinders US -China relations. Lai Qingde's "walking into the White House" is just imagination. The "cold treatment" of the United States on the visit of Lai is reflected in the reality of the US -Lutai relations.
